Trap

The BVCS Spring League ended on June 6th. A tremendous party was held on June 9th. Awards were given out. The Hamburg team won the top prize AGAIN. We can't argue with their success, they have many good shooters. Food was ample & drinks were self serve. A good time was had by all!

The doubles league has started. By the time you read this, we will be into the 4th week of 6 week. To date, there are more doubles shooters signed up than we have ever had (about 20 so far) & they shoot a lot. This number will cover party expenses for pizza & wings on July quite readily.

After a 2 week lull in action - practice shooting only on Thursdays; August 1st & 8th, we begin - are you ready for this - The FALL League. This will start on August 11th & run for the normal 10 weeks shooting on Sundays; 9 am - 12 noon & Thursdays; 6pm - 8 pm with another great trap party with good food & drink on Sunday October 20th. Hope to see many more come out to enjoy our sport. New & experienced alike are welcome.

I would like to thank all of those that came out to provide the help unloading components & targets on May 29th. I do believe that was the fastest unload we ever had. Pizza & wings were provided by the trap committee, along with adult beverages for those that cared to partake.

Thanks
