Allan Milligan & Manfred Krettek
The members of the North Shore Fish and Game Club are deeply saddened by the passing of two long time club members, Allan Milligan and Manfred Krettek.
Allan Milligan
Allan was one of the early members of the North Shore Fish and Game Club, joining soon after the Club’s founding, serving as President in 1970-71. Beyond his involvement with the Club, Allan also served as Trails Manager at Maplewood Flats. In recognition of his exceptional service to the community, Allan received a Special Recognition Award from North Shore Community Services.
On behalf of all members, past and present, we extend our deepest condolences to his family, including Laurie, his son and NSF&G club member. He will be greatly missed and fondly remembered.
Manfred Krettek
Manfred came to Canada in the early 70s from Czechoslovakia, settling first in Toronto and later in Vancouver. He was a furniture maker by trade, an ardent fisherman (both salt and freshwater) a great chef, bread maker and accomplished artist. His friends were shocked by his sudden passing.
Manfred leaves behind his loving wife, Olga, as well as a daughter, Christine. He had many friends in the club and will be missed. Unfortunately I could not find a picture of Manfred but the picture below is an example of his artwork, courtesy of Derek and Linda Hardy.
2022 Christmas Potluck
A great time was had by all at the 2022 Christmas Potluck. A great big thank you is due to all who made it come off flawlessly: Andrea, Linda, Nancy Derek, Jim, Joe and many more. A great thanks is also due to the Legion itself for being so welcoming and helpful. It was great to be able to get together for a face to face social occasion. Thanks also to BCWF President Chuck Zuckerman who joined us for the evening.
We also raised $240 as well as food donations for the food bank!
Facebook Community Page
Ed has created a Facebook community chat group called “NSFGC community chat“, which you can reach by clicking on the link. It’s a place to connect get advice and share information about fishing ,hunting and Conservation for the members and friends of the North Shore Fish and Game Club.
The idea is to create a group chat to improve communication between members and potential new members of the North Shore Fish And Game Club. In the past we’ve used our monthly bulletin as well as WhatsApp chat groups to share information about club hunts, derbies and other events, but this community page should be a great improvement.
You can join by clicking the link, going to the community page and asking to join. Ed will get a message and add you. It’s that simple!
