Usually this newsletter covers important events and such stuff involving the Bay Point Rod and Gun Club, however since I’m new at writing newsletters you will just have take what you get and like it. So, there!
First off, I want to address the Crab Feed March 7th. We will be selling 110 tickets at the bargain price of $65.00. We will also sell four youth tickets and four non-crab tickets at $30.00 each. The menu will be fresh crab, pasta, shrimp cocktail, salad, garlic bread and dessert. There will also be wine at each table, bring a special bottle of your own if you wish. Roasted chicken will substitute for crab on those non-crab tickets. Laura Shaw is putting this feed together and she could really use some help getting donations for the raffle.
What’s in the works? Well, President Llama is planning the Spring Skeet League as I write this. It’ll be a seven-week caper starting in late April on Monday or Thursday nights, get your 5 squad mates together. There is also serious talk of a Spring Trap League on Tuesday nights starting in April…Here is good news. It seems that the Rifle and Pistol ranges could be open in mid-February! Leita Stevens is the new Rifle/Pistol Range Manager, she needs RSO’s to help run the range, contact her or Pete Llama.
Congratulations to Concord Club member, Jack Bernardi. He hit an NSSA milestone by shooting 75,000 registered skeet targets. Jack has helped my grandson and me improve our scores and it’s nice to see him get some recognition at the National level.
Congratulations also go to Bay Point Member L.A. Taylor. He made it onto the ATA Golden State Trap Team. It is quite an honor.
If you haven’t tried USI’s five-stand you have been missing a great time. Eric Juhl, Ed Mena, Mike Johnson and the rest of the Up-the-Hill Crew have put together a course that is just damn fun. However, it is tough, a real challenge. One man shot it using a brand new Platinum Diana Grade 9 Kolar and left so frustrated that he couldn’t segregate his adjectives for an hour. When he finally got his wits back he vowed that he’d run barefoot through downtown San Francisco before he’d shoot five-stand again. Get up there and enjoy five-stand
The meeting next month will be February 9th and the dinner theme will be Winter Winner Chicken Dinner. As usual the club will provide the chicken plus a few odds and ends, but we ask that the members bring a side dish, salads and desserts to fill the bill. Jackie Collins has volunteered to bring her famous Turnip Marshmallow Oyster Surprise…it goes well with a fine white wine.
