At their recent meeting, the Fly Fishers International Board of Directors elected Dave Peterson as their new Chairman. Peterson succeeds Tom Logan, who will now serve as Vice President – Conservation.
Dave is a retired school superintendent from Pentwater Michigan. He has fly fished for over 35 years. A life member of FFI, he has served on the Education Committee, Executive Committee, and as Chair of the Conservation Committee. According to Dave, all of those duties have given him a sense of satisfaction of “giving something back” to the sport.
In accepting this position, Dave stated “I am honored to be given the opportunity to serve as the new Chairman of the FFI Board. My goal is to ensure that the Board of Directors, our Committees, our Councils and Clubs work hand in hand with our President and CEO and the FFI staff to continue to advance our collective vision to become the definitive voice of fly fishing of All Fish, All Waters.”
