Rim Fire Benchrest for Score Match
May 26, 2013
The match was well attended with 16 competitors enjoying the warm weather, sunshine and camaraderie.
Bolt Action Class
First place Phil Nick 742/750
Second place Jake Choquette 733/750
Third place Burt Bastien 731/750
Fourth place Katelyn Jack 701/750. Katelynn is a 12 year old girl from Emo shooting a Savage with CCI ammunition in her first Bench Rest match. The three retired gentlemen that placed ahead of Katelynn probably have a combined total of at least 150 years shooting experience. They were also shooting expensive highly accurate target rifles. Katelynn surprised a lot of veteran shooters with her shooting skills.
Semi Auto Class
First place Ken Chambers 698/750
Second place Bill Gabryluk 690/750
Third place Ron Pettis 669/750
Thanks to all who came out to support the Club and thanks to the volunteers who performed the duties of tournament officials as Range officers, Referees, Target Detail, scoring and special thanks to Al Cardinal for the barbequed lunch.

Our 2013 brochure is available here. It gives a great snapshot of what is happening at the club this year. Please feel free to distribute to all your friends!
Spring is here so the gate will remain locked until the road is in suitable condition to drive on. The range is still open and available to be used but you will need to walk in.
Road is open again! Thanks!
Saturday May 18th
Hotdogs, hamburgers and pop will be available.
As of March 7th, 2013 your board of directors has passed a motion to cancel the requirement to attend a yearly compulsory shooting event to maintain your A.T.T. You MUST, however, sign the register that is inside the building. If your name does not appear in the registry book at least once during the year, you will be contacted by the board of directors to find out why you have become inactive or if you cannot get out to enjoy our facility.
The board of directors passed a further resolution regarding the cancellation of A.T.T.’s. An A.T.T. can only be revoked by the board of directors for non payment of dues, a serious safety infraction, or failure to renew your firearms licence.
If any member has questions regarding these changes please contact Gil Pelletier, Handgun Division chair, at 465-5978 or Al Cardinal, President, at 543-3538.
