Another beautiful day to shoot and test our new target staging system.  The setup went very well on Saturday, but we now need some help on Sunday shoot mornings to help setup the new pistol targets.  They are lighter, but the drawback is that they are portable.  Therefore, we do not dare put them up on Saturday because they may grow feet!  If people could attend a half-hour early on Sunday and bring a rachet and 3/4 inch socket, that would help.  If you can donate a rachet and socket to the club, that would be great too!

Our 50-50 raffle went very well.  Uncle Rog was a natural and pulled in the money.  Our winner was Wild Will, but he gave it back to the club. Thanks Wild Will for subsidizing the 3-Day Catering costs!  He was also our only clean shooter of the month.  Way to go Wild Will!

As promised, we are publishing the 3-Day Shoot Application early this year so you can plan/budget earlier for attending the event. We are going with a new caterer, per the annual meeting vote, but it will cost us more. The Vile Bunch decided that we will use the Long Rider portion of 50-50 proceeds in the next 3 months to help offset the cost. However, we did need to raise the dinner price by $2 to help ensure that we do not lose too much money.

Don’t forget to sign-up for the 3-Day Shoot.  If you are online, you will find it under “3 Day Shoot”, “2009″, “3-Day Shoot Application”. Please fill the 3-Day Application form out and send in the printed confirmation with your check to Calamity Janet before August 1st. For our snail-mail friends, see the attached application and follow the instructions on the form before August 1st.

See you out on the range!
