The 2023 Fall Run Picnic was highlighted by the honoring of long-time PSA and 3-CU member, Roger Latimer, for his unselfish dedication to both organizations. As Karl Weixlmann put it, for Roger’s “decades of dedication”. Roger has been a member of the PSA since its beginning in 1996. He has served on the organization’s board for a large part of that time. Always willing to volunteer for a variety of projects and events. Volunteering is probably not the right word for Roger as he fully commits to making our events the best they can possibly be. He has been deeply involved with many of our projects for many years. Roger helped plan our Fall Run Banquets and Picnics, and garners many of our sponsor donations.  Roger has helped with stream cleanups, 3-CU raceway projects, angler education, free hot dog days at Trout Run and Walnut Creek Marina, and much more. He has been a past President of the PSA and in 2023 is the current Vice-President. He also has been a regular at the Fruit Basket delivery Program as well as a contributor with articles to TightLines. You can often find Roger working the table at other organizations events soliciting memberships to the PSA or hawking raffle tickets at our events. He is also instrumental is helping with stocking or any other needs 3-C-U has! He is always happy to share his fishing knowledge with other anglers whether it is flyfishing, spin fishing, or bait fishing. More importantly he has been a steward of the steelhead fishery. Go to Avonia Beach early some morning when Roger is fishing and when he is done you will see him patrol the beach with a garbage bag in hand picking up trash. Roger has been an invaluable member of the PSA Board whose opinion is highly regarded.
