Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe holiday season.
The New Year gives everyone a fresh start and thoughts turn to planning vacations and activities for the year. Remember to earmark the 4th Sunday of the month from April through October for the monthly Long Riders shoot. Don’t forget to book your vacation for Friday, August 20th through the 22nd for the Annual Long Riders Three-Day Shoot.

We need you to get out and VOTE on your officers for 2010 and help us set the direction for the new shooting year. Remember, our club operates under modified S.A.S.S. rules according to the way the majority of our members prefer.
