Gentle Shooters, The weatherman is having trouble making up his mind, but your match directors are not. The hourly forecast seems to indicate that we will get the match in. But we also know that our shooters aren’t terribly interested in driving to the range only to not shoot. So your match directors have decided that we are shooting rain or shine. We will be bringing steel to the range and expect to set it up in the 50 foot berm if we cannot shoot pins. There will be a variety of targets, and timers for practice and entertainment. Assuming the weather is OK, we will shoot our regular match. Set up is 8:30 am and shooters meeting at 9. See you at the range Saturday, June 7th. Steven
