Old Business

After a lengthy discussion it was decided that we will purchase and award a grand prize in the name of Steve McClure at our annual fishing derby.

The shotgun patterning target has been completed.

New Business
We continue to have a problem with damage to the various targets at the club. Several lights were shot out at the 100 and 200 yard ranges. The 400 yard target holders were shot and the new turkey target had targets and junk left after it was used. Suggestions are needed to eliminate these problems. We discussed having sign in sheets, setting up game cameras etc.. .

Charles Bungo made a motion to donate $100.00 to the Grampian Penn/Bloom fire department and it passed on a James Johnston second.

Steve McClure left his membership to his son Kyle, and Kyle has assumed Steve’s membership as of the September meeting.

The annual Grice January Sale will be January 26/27, 2013. Steve Strouse has volunteered to man a table for Anderson Creek . We will need additional volunteers to represent the club at the sale.

After repeated attempts to contact Brian Allen concerning the IBS matches it was decided that we need to make some changes to the IBS matches. It was suggested that Steve Strouse become a director/assistant director of the matches and that the times need to be changed to an earlier start time. Steve Strouse will let us know his intentions by the next meeting.
