JANUARY 21, 2018 - PETITCODIAC - CENTERFIRE BR - RESULTS

It was a nice day to host our match today. With only two relays it went fast. The temperature ranged from -7 to -1 degrees C, but it was sunny and light wind. We were able to rig the shutters to address the glare from the sun on the snow. This made for improved sight on the targets. 

The Match Direstor today, was Volker T. who was also the scorer. Range Officers were 
Brian P. and Dan G. Pictures by Darryl K. and write-up was send in by Volker T. 

The targets were changed by Brian P., Shelly C., Dan G. and Mike A. Shelly C. brought her delicious treats and Dan G. the Timbits. Thanks,everyone, for your help. As you know, shoots don't just happen - they need the input from many to be successful.

Welcome to Mike A. who, at his first BR shoot, did very well indeed!

JANUARY 20, 2018 - LAKE GEORGE - 22BR - RESULTS

The day started out snowy and windy. Bruce B., the match director, had the "Welcome Mat" out and the clubhouse was warm and cozy. 

Everything outside was shoveled and salted, even the path to the outhouses. 

During the day, the snow eased off but not the wind. There were four windflags down range and each propeller was spinning in a different direction. This made shooting very trying at times. The sun came out after lunch and the merry, little breezes were actually warm for a short time. It was a lovely day at Lake George Gun Club. 


Dave C. and Carl J. scored the targets, George M., Bruce B., Barb J. and Cecil H. changed the targets, while Bruce B., Norbert S. and Barb J. were Range Officers. Thanks to all for your help.

Bruce B. made his awesome chili for lunch, and also served up some delectible hot dogs. Barb J. brought sweets.  A special thanks to Bruce for carrying on the shoot in loving memory of Terry F. Mc Neill.
