If all 6 booths are being used and another member is waiting to shoot, please limit your shooting time to a half hour. That seems to be a logical amount of time for a member to wait. This is in effect in many clubs. Simply be courteous to fellow members. Booth one (extreme left) will be designated for instruction, however if no one is being trained it is open to…

After the fire Bob was one of the people who vowed the club would be rebuilt and reopen, "better than before". His years working as electrical inspector for the town became key to our reopening. He was a real mover and shaker and…
