Hi Folks,

 

Our February match is this Sunday, the 3rd!!.  First Sunday of the month due to Winter range conflicts.

 

We had a small turnout for our January match since it was so cold.  Probably 40 degrees at the start of the match and it did not get much warmer. We had about 10 hardy souls show up and shoot.

 

 We need to get our attendance up a bit for 2013.  Please bring a friend to a match and get them interested.  Our insurance is very expensive, so we need to expand our member base to make this club viable in 2013.

 

We will have club officer elections in Feb (we did not have a vote in Jan since the turnout was low), so please let the current officers know if you are interested in one of the club positions ( pres, vice pres, treasurer, or secretary). Fred is offered to run for President and I am running for VP and Sec.  Pete is going to step down as secretary in 2013.

 

We are also going to raise the fee for the second gun to $6 for 2013.  The second gun fee was never raised when Game&Fish raised the rates we pay a few years ago.  We need to finally bump that up.

 

One more money related bit, club membership dues renew in Jan, so please bring your $15 club dues to the next match if you have not renewed.. 

 

Dale shot a very nice 27 to become match winner in scope.  Virginia Spurlock followed with a solid 19, which considering the weather was very good

 

Al Sheffel was our match winner in iron sights with an 18.  I think that was his first match win, congrats Al-!     

 

Dale Mayer was the winner of the Revolver challenge with an actual 21 and net score of 21. Shooting his new Freedom Arms 357.  

 

Chuck Z  had a 29 to edge out Virginia by one point in the levergun challenge.

 

I called the match last month, Dale and Fred Paxia handled the money and entries. 

 

 

It is winter hours!! So practice starts at 9:00am and the match at 10:00am.

 

Hope to see you this Sunday.
