We have received several thank you notes from  participants.

New Business
We are not going to seed the new target backstops. The front and back of the back stops have been seeded with clover. A work party is scheduled for 7/12/14 at 9:00 am to pick up rocks from the front and back of the new backstops and to repair the roof of the hay shed. The field has been sprayed with Round Up, disced and planted with clover and turnips. Members are reminded to stay away from the range when there is a match in progress and to NOT drive near the ranges when there is a match in progress.  Please sign up to mow the grass, there will be a sign up sheet posted in the clubhouse. Members are encouraged to get more involved in club projects, we had 14 members who had no hours and 10 members with less than 9 hours last year. Steve Wagner made a motion to buy a tri-axle load of gravel at a cost of $550.00 to repair the driveway. The motion passed on a Bud Thomas second.
