Howdy Folks

Since I missed this month's match the newsletter will be very short. I know everyone had a great time at the range this month and had a lot of fun with the stages, potluck and togetherness. My work demanded my attention so I was forced to miss all the fun to be had at the range. I plan on being at the range in March so if there is anything you want posted in the newsletter please let me know. I also need to have your announcements or comments to be sent to me within one week after the match so I can get the newsletter out in a timely manner. Thanks. See you on the range.

Bo Bean is writing the match for April and is requesting a poll on how many folks would like to have seven stages for Saturday or if you want to keep it at six stages. There won't be any shooting on Sunday because the range will be closed for Easter Sunday. Dave Olds is closing the range to observe Easter Sunday with his family. So you can let me know what you think and I will let him know.

The Shootout at 5 Dogs Creek -- California State Championship is right around the corner -- April 28, May 2. If you've attended previously, you know that you're in for a great weekend of shooting and frivolity. If you've never attended, boy oh boy, are you in for more fun than you thought possible.

All club members are encouraged to shoot the match!!! All too often it seems some folks get a bit intimidated by the "state championship" title. Really folks, it just a big 'ol monthly match where you can have a great time with your pards. Life is short...sign up and shoot!

All club members are encouraged to volunteer to help with the match!!! The income from the annual is what makes range improvements, new targets, and all the things you enjoy each month possible. Our monthly matches do not pay the bills. So if you like shooting each month, come on out and help 5 Dogs Creek put its best paw forward. With your help, we can make this year's annual the best yet.

What can you do to help? So glad you asked!
