Family Day - July 16th

 Every year we hold a Family Day - this year it's on July 16th.

Put it in your diary! Members are invited to bring along family and friends to the range to enjoy a summer BBQ and see what we get up to ... it's our way of saying thank you.



The 75m range will be closed on the day as we need the space for the marquee.

The annual .22 benchrest competition will be held on the day again. There is a trophy for the top club shooter and there will be prizes for the top man and lady from all-comers.

Friends and family are encouraged to take part. In addition to the benchrest comp there will also be opportunities to try your hand at clay pigeon shooting, archery and air pistol shooting. There will be prizes.

It's a great day for catching up with other members too ... we hope you can make it.

To help with catering we need a rough idea of numbers ... please let Janet or Sheila know if you will be attending and how many people you will be bringing with you (by the end of June please). We will also need their names and addresses as we have to clear all guests with the police firearms dept.

May Day Interclub Competition - Results

A beautiful day, but a bit on the windy side.

It was good to meet up with shooters from North Cotes Butts, the Cadets and Lincoln & District again.

It looked like everyone had a good time. The BBQ was excellent (thanks Mike - and thanks Mrs Mike for the cakes!!!).

 29 shooters took part in the competition, which was for the best group at 75m with a .22 rifle.

The winning team was Janet Taylor, Rob Duffie and Jacqui Armitage

1st - Reepham Shooting Centre with an average group of 0.630"
2nd - L&D with 0.835"
3rd - North Cotes with 1.134"
4th - Cadets with 1.360"

Janet Taylor from Reepham Shooting Centre was the best shot of the day with 0.505"

Some more photos will be at the Club on Saturday

Thanks to Carl & Vernon for letting us use the range for the day, Fred for scoring, Sid & Sheila for helping and to Andy & Janet for organising the day.

We are hoping to arrange another Interclub competition for the August Bank Holiday ... so get the date in your diary and watch this space
