GEFFC’s mission is that its advisers, members, and various community members and organizations
join in order to promote ecological awareness and fly fishing skills.
The club’s philosophy is that fly fishing is more than just a
recreational activity; fly fishing within a local stream or river is a way to celebrate life.
The club’s goals and objectives are to provide students the opportunity
to learn fly fishing skills, to examine one’s impact upon the environment, and to enable students to acquire fishing
friends.
GEFFC currently has no affiliation with a parent organization but it
has had support from Greenbrier Valley Chapter of Trout Unlimited and from Serenity Now Outfitters.
Club activities include hosting guest speakers, examining various media
that promotes fly fishing skills and travel, fly rod casting, and fly tying.
Prerequisites for membership include a student’s completing an
application and being selected. No dues, fees, or related activities are required. GEFFC has a student president selected
by the advisers.
