It started out as foggy day while travelling to Petitcodiac. The distance was a bit longer because of the flooding in the Saint John river valley which caused several shooters to have to miss the shoot.
The day became warmer and sunny as the day progressed. Wind conditions were also benign with swirling winds up and down range and from the left. However, the winds stayed mild and as a result some good scores were shot today.
Congrats to John McC. and Bert deV. who shot a 300/13X and 300/15X respectively.
The Match Director today was Dan G. who also was the chief scorer with John McC. verifying the scores. John Mc., Don M., and Bert deV. changed targets. The latter two also provided the RO services. Dan G. brought Timbits and Tony L. brought Shelly's delicious squares. Thanks to all for your help today.

APRIL 22, 2018 - MINTO BR - OPEN AND SPORTER - RESULTS
Only 8 shooters attended this benchrest shoot on the nicest day we have enjoyed all year. I guess that on a day such as this everyone was coming out of doors and doing work in
their yards or being on a cruise.
The sun was out all day radiating its warmth and by the afternoon a temperature of 12 degrees C. was recorded. In fact the coolest place on the range today was in the shooting building where a
strong wind came in through the open ports.
Yes, there was a strong wind which varied in direction from 3 o'clock to 12 o'clock but which could come from anywhere in gusts. If you weren't careful you most certainly would get caught in a wind change. The
scores reflect the difficult conditions today. Challenging but satisfying when you read the wind correctly and your shot printed on the 10 ring.
Today the Match Director was John McC. Scoring was done by our good friend Don M. and the verification of the scores
and calculations was done by Wayne K. The targets were set and changed by George M., John McC., Wayne K., Bruce B. and Bert deV. The Range Officers were Bruce B. and Bill H. Shelly C.'s wonderful squares were brought up to the shoot by Tony L. Many thanks to all for lending a hand today.

APRIL 15, 2018 - PETITCODIAC 22BR - RESULTS
Here we are mid-way through April (one month into spring). This is usually a pretty nice time of year with warm sun and water running everywhere. Many song birds would have returned to New Brunswick by
now and we would be thinking of what needs to be done to prepare the garden.
This year is especially nice for those who are not yet ready to let go of snowmobiling, lighting fires in stoves and extending the winter cocooning.
It was COLD this morning at about 10C below zero and there was a stiff wind. Winds were gusty and especially for the first relay, all over the place. Scores sure reflect the conditions today. One saving grace was that the sun did come out but it didn't warm up much. In case you thought we were complaining, we were happy to be out together having fun.
Dan G. was the match director and head scorer with John McC. providing the verification. Thanks to Mike C., Guy H., John McC., Chris S. and Bert deV. for changing the targets. John McC., Bruce B. and Bert deV. were the ROs today. The most excellent treats were provided by Barb J. and Dan G. Thanks to everyone for pitching in and also to the big crowd of shooters for coming out. Let's do it again next week in Minto.

APRIL 8, 2018 - MINTO 22 OPEN AND SPORTER BR - RESULTS
Spring sure is taking its time getting here. Today, April the 8th already, was bright but cold (I don't think we came up above zero today - maybe we came close later on) and windy. More like weather we'd
expect in March. The wind, even though pretty stiff at times, was from the right and from behind (3 and 6 o'clock). and it remained steady throughout the match and so was predictable at times. Although no 400 scores were shot today, some pretty goodshooting took place (after some of us had lost significant points trying to get sighted in).
It was good to see George M. and Cecil H. at the range today. These fellows have been battling some medical issues and things for them are looking up again. Thank goodness.
The Match Director was Wayne K. while Don M. and Mike C. did the scoring duties. A good crew tended to the targets. These included Wayne K., Cecil H., Ben F., Shawn R., Barb J. and Mike C. The ROs for the match were Bruce B. and Barb J. We were spoiled
again by Barb's treats and breads. Thanks to all for lending a hand to make this shoot an enjoyable time for all of us.
