General Membership Meeting - 7PM July 2nd - OUTDOOR RANGE

Rim fire rifle silhouette July 11th 1:30PM

Monday Night Trap - 5:30PM till dark - Wednesday Night High Power Rifle League

The first rim fire rifle silhouette match was held June 13th. Attendance was very good with 12 shooters. One junior, one women and the majority club members. The match was won by Brett Laubenthal with twelve animals. Everyone had a good time. Come on out to July's match Saturday the 11th at 1:30 PM. All you need is about 2 hours and 50 rounds of ammo for the match and sighting in before.

The program for before and after Thursday's meeting is CMP rim fire rifle sporter match practice and rule explanation. Andy Hill will help shooters sight in their rim fire rifles before the meeting and then there will be a short practice held after the meeting. Bring your squirrel gun and have a little shooting fun.

At the last meeting it was suggested we take up collections for the electrical expenses incurred by the club the past several months. It was no sooner mentioned to pass the collection plate at the July meeting and long time club member Dave Curtiss started things out with a generous check for $100.00. That is going to be hard to beat but the club will welcome any amount you are willing to donate.

Monday night trap is using pitch birds and there are very few if any broken birds. Come on out on a Monday and shoot a few rounds of trap.

Good shooting and see you at the meeting.
