This weekend will be the third of the month so a 25 Metre Centrefire/Sports Pistol match is on Sunday.
The committee will hold its monthly meeting next Sunday at 11am. Planning will commence for the Western Plains ISSF Championships to be held later in the year. On topic for discussion will be the creation of a roster of members available to help out on that weekend. About five or six people will be needed to work each range 5-6 people per range.
Also, the cooler weather means it is now appropriate for the Black Powder match for this month to be held on the fourth Sunday afternoon.
