From the Desk of Our President, Charlie Coulter

It is beginning to look like we may actually be drying out, but a real spring and mild temperatures has been nice.  One thing the heavy rains have proven that the majority of our water drainage and diversion projects have worked.  Many thanks to all those who helped in the planning and construction of those projects.

Our next range improvement will be to replace several of the storage sheds including the cardboard and target storage shed on C range as well as a building to store our tractor and other tools.  The cost of these buildings will be greatly reduced by an anonymous donation.  As always, thanks to Jim Sharrow for helping to stretch our dollars.

The board wishes to remind members that we welcome their attendance at our monthly meetings.  We would ask that any member who wishes to bring a matter before the board for consideration simply contact Jim Sharrow and ask that the subject be added to the upcoming agenda.

One last thing is the difficulty that we are having in finding.22 ammo for our youth safety classes.  If anyone comes across.22 ammo at a reasonable cost, please notify Harvey Bulaski or any board member.

 Meet, Eat, and a Little Bit of Skeet

Ladies and gentlemen, come join us Friday, June7th up on the hill for a bit of clays shooting, fellowship, and food.  Good times are bound to be had, or at the very least, some free food to fill your belly.  Hotdogs, chips, and cold drinks will be provided free of charge, on a first come, first served basis.  The grill will be fired up promptly at 6:00 p.m., so come on out and enjoy a relaxing early summer evening with your friends and fellow members.

While the food is free, normal charges apply for a round of clays.  Please shoot me an e-mail at John3-16@cox.net  if you plan to attend so we can ensure we have enough food to go around.  In the event of rain, or lack of interest, we will post a cancellation notice on our website.  Hope to see you there-The Clays Crew!
