2022 CHANGES

A few significant changes are coming this year:

(1) we will be posting updated quarterly newsletters on our web site and only mailing one hard copy news-letter per year during July.

(2) we are changing our monthly trap shoots from the first Sunday of the month to the first Saturday of the month, April through Dec. Scheduled league shoots will still be held on Sundays.

(3) we are considering revamping the 250 club raffle tickets. Fewer but higher money prizes are being considered and cost of the tickets may be increased. Forty (40) percent of the tickets remain unsold and the cost of the meal for the blow- outs has increased.

We welcome your comments or suggestions for changes.
