What's Happening @ Your Club?

Hello everyone, Pancho

It seems as though this Pandemic that we’ve overcome has left it’s mark on a lot of things. Prayer’s and Thoughts for all that where affected by it. As far as our club it affected some of the things we enjoyed.

To date, Our Air Rifle and pistol league as well as the 22 rifle league will be in need of someone to take over, if we want to continue this. Betty Dobson has done a wonderful job, along those who have helped Her running this league for sometime now, however she has to decided to step down.

Our Bullseye League is also another one that’s been affected. Both Cliff Faulring and Jim Bugenhagen and others that have helped with this league have not been able to resume, so far. It might change at a later date, but for now it’s not happening.

On the brighter side our Trap League, run by Ernie Miller and others has been in full swing. Please pay attention for the next e-mail concerning delivery, we will need all hands on deck. Our open shoot on Tuesdays at 7:00 pm has been running thanks to Mike Spoors.

Although a little light also, our last meeting was well attended, however not the way it has been in the past. All this said we are in need of continued support of our fundraisers. Raffle Tickets, Calendar Tickets and any other fundraising we can come up with. We need ideas. We’ve had to change insurance carriers, plus our usual expenses. Our next meeting is Monday July 19th at 7:30. Attend to find out what’s going on with YOUR CLUB.

Respectfully, Pancho

10 week Fall League: Sunday’s 9-12, Thursday 6-8, August 16th - Oct 22nd

At this time, we are into the 4th wee of 6 in the doubles league. Not a bad turnout considering lack of ammunition & components for making the same. After the doubles are finished, August 5th, 1 week of open shooting August 12th will be available & the 10 week Fall Trap league will start on Sunday, August 15th. The usual shooting times; Sundays, 9am - 12 noon & Thursdays, 6pm - 8pm are still in effect. As always practice, new & league shooter are welcome to participate.

July 9th, I sent a notice hoping the targets will get delivered & would be asking for help once again. Well, back to the future; as of this writing, hopefully the targets are here & I can thank those that helped in the unloading.

Thank you to the trap volunteers & the BVCS board for their continued support.

Trap person: Ernie
