Mark your calendars for Friday, February 4th, and plan to attend the Free Friday event at the Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center. Bill McGuire will be there from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. and he will be showing everyone that attends some examples of his rod building and gunstock making skills. A collection of McGuire’s photographs, trophies and other items have been on display at the museum since December, and if you haven’t seen this exhibit this would be a good time to do it. In the Gold Room are just some of the hundreds of trophies and awards he won for his feats in tennis, skiing, fishing and shooting. He is best known for his fishing locally, but internationally he better known for his craftsmanship in building gunstocks. I will be bringing along an eleven-weight fly rod McGuire made for my 60th birthday, and there will be other fly rods to see that evening. There will also be examples of his gunstocks to view at the event. This is the perfect time to meet McGuire and see his work. The exhibit will close at the end of February, so don’t miss this free evening at the Wenatchee Valley Museum.
