Dues are now due! $60.00 single $85.00 family. Please remember you must pay the non-member rounds fees until your membership is paid for the current year.

Please send them to me at the above address or place them in the rounds book.

Lower fields are open. The #2 skeet field now has a remote control w/ microphone just as the #1 field. Please keep the controller in the #2 low house next to the machine. The trap field also has a remote that can be used for both the trap and skeet machines. The skeet machines are #1&2 and the trap machine is #3. This controller will be kept in the trap house on the left shelf as you enter the bunker. The 100 bird Sporting Course should be available around the 7th of May. If you have an issue with a machine please let me know.

This years State Shoot is July 30th & 31st . Please reserve the weekend now before your wife fills your summer calendar! We need a few volunteers for Saturday but we desperately need the entire membership on Sunday. You will be contacted soon by a Director so we can start filling our list of positions needed. Save us a call, let us know what you can do.. This shoot brought in more than $10,000.00 last year.

The more help we have the more fun we have!

Have a great summer and break some targets!
