The 4H work party is still a go, its a rain or shine event. One other member going, got an email asking everyone to meet at the Gray Building. I unfortunately, will not be able to attend as I have become under the weather.

The center’s work party tomorrow is a rain or shine event. If you’re attending, be prepared to work in the rain/wet conditions.
The Pin Match decision will be made last minute. If it’s raining in Wakefield in the morning, I’ll post a cancellation on the website and FB. Otherwise, I’ll assess the conditions when I get out there. If the match is cancelled, I’d like the pinheads to crash the Center’s work party to help get that work knocked out.
I hope to see you tomorrow at the range.

Gentle Shooters,
We are entering the final third of the Bowling Match Shooting Season this weekend at the Airfield Shooting Club. Including the tilt on Saturday, October 7th there are only three more bowling pin matches left in 2023. Reserve your spot early by being at the range this Saturday at 9:30. Shooters are requested to check in with the Airfield Shooting Club work party on the adjacent field before departing after the match. We are assisting our 4H partners with getting an archery range and we may need you help.
For those of you who are new to this, we have directions and instructions at the Airfield Shooting club web site. For specific questions, please feel free to ping a pinhead at [email protected].

The September Rimfire Challenge is in the books for the Modified Benchrest Challenge. The weather was great except for the wind gusts. It proved most challenging for the most experienced contestants.
This is a reminder that this coming Saturday, October 7th, there will be a work party to assist the 4H center with the new 3D archery range. Part of the Airfield Shooting Clubs original goals were to assist the 4H center with projects since they are our host. This new range will be available for ASC members to use also. This adds archery to our offerings to members. If you have time please consider helping out the center and our club. Service hours will be given for hours performed. Please RSVP from the information provided in the flier.

The work party for the new 3D archery range is a go for Oct 7. After meeting with Kathy at the September board meeting some details were provided. Volunteers will be assisting with laying out and preparing the shooting lanes. Assisting with removal of brush and trimming back tree limbs. General tools like loppers and handsaws would be needed. If you have a pole saw it could be helpful. Of course gloves, closed toe shoes and safety glasses would be helpful. Service hours will be given for all volunteers from the club. This is the flier provided from the center. If you plan on attending please reply to the email address on the flier or you may use the QR code.
