Summer BBQ

Despite intermittent rains throughout the day, the Woodstock Gun Club BBQ came off with guns and bows 'a blazin'!

By 10 am, members and guests were practicing at the archery range under the direction of Kevin Rice. At 11 am, Robert Deeley set up his biathlon range and was giving demos. Even a friendly game of horseshoes was underway. At the crack of noon, the Trap field became the venue of action. Gals, guys; experienced and beginner shooters of all ages shot close to ten strings of birds up until 2 pm. At which point, we learned that our BBQ providers' smoker was on the fritz. Undaunted, a quick trip to the South Woodstock store coupled with the generous abundance of side dishes and desserts saved the day. We raffled off 3 rifles, a compound bow and many boxes of ammo. Many thanks to John and Linda for spearheading the event and to all those who contributed. Great fun was had by all.
