Eric Potts bought a new 18,500 BTU A/C for the skeet building and donated it to the club. Temps went into the 90s for the skeet match on May 15th and this new A/C saved the day. Thanks Eric!

Thanks to Logan Esarey for the lumber to build picnic tables at the new shelter beside the skeet building. These tables will be very useful.

                                         Ten Commandments of Safe Gun Handling

1.  Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.

2.  Treat every firearm as if it were loaded.

3.  Always keep the action open except when hunting or preparing to shoot.

4.  Be sure the barrel and action are clear of obstructions and that you have the proper ammunition for the      firearm you are carrying.

5.  Be sure of your target before you pull the trigger.

6.  Never point a firearm at anything you do not want to shoot. Avoid all horseplay with a firearm.

7.  Never climb a fence, tree or jump a fence with a loaded firearm.

8.  Never shoot at a flat, hard surface or water.

9.  Store firearms and ammunition separately.

10. Avoid alcohol and other drugs before or during shooting.
