What a Night!


Kevin Rice put on an amazing demonstration of his archery skills. You should see this guy cluster his arrows in the bullseye at 30 yards. Andrew Staub faired pretty well in our first meet, taking second honors.

A large group showed up for trap, over 25 people in total. We might have to start earlier if this keeps up! Two new members joined, one from Reading, another from Austin, Texas. Unfortunately the trap machine malfunctioned, but luckily we were able to wheel up one of the Atlas portable launchers and make a go of it. Everybody got to shoot their fill and we went on until the sun was nearly set. Though the clays flew straight and high on the same course each launch, it was kind of fun to shoot and not have them flying all over the place. Jim Johnson shot a 23. Jim Fish gave him a run for his money.

The Board decided it was a good idea to create a sign-up clip board for members who were shooting at the range. Look for it on the clubhouse deck. Members attending organized events such as trap, archery meets and field clays need not sign in. But if you're shooting by yourself or with a small group, please register so we can know who's at the Club. It'll also help to see what type of shooting people are actually doing.

Bryan and Jon are working on fixing the pump, we hope to have water on call for the restrooms by the August 16th BBQ.

Don't forget field clays this Thursday. Dave will be running it. Meet at the range at 5:30pm
