Thanks goes out to Shawn Lovell (our new Vice President) , Eric Cero, Jim White, and Don Edwards for all their hard work in getting the range cleaned and ready for this upcoming season. Over the last several weeks they have removed beaver dams, fallen trees, and trash from the whole shooting range-please let them know how much you appreciate all their hard work behind the scenes. THANKS GUYS!!

Thanks to Eric Cero, our former Vice President, for his past and continued service to the club
Over the many years this club has been in existence, we have been very fortunate to have high caliber, strong leaders in charge. Eric has been Vice President, and former President, and has been instrumental in the progress of this club. He has been the backbone of the clubs maintenance and equipment programs, keeping the range and targets in the fantastic condition we are all so accustomed to. Eric has set a precedent of volunteerism that's hard to beat.Moving gravel, cutting the material that goes into the targets and building them, handling tournament preparations, range maintenance,even rebuilding the grill after vandalism -gee, the list goes on and on, always ensuring the club was at it's best. He has now accepted the responsibility of being the liaison for our club,representing our interests at the GAA . Thank-You Coach Eric! Please let him know how much you appreciate his tireless efforts.
