MEETINGS CANCELLED....
Due to the sudden closure of the No.4 Freemasons pub, our meetings will be cancelled until further notice. It is not yet known whether we will continue at the No.4 when they re-open, or if an alternative venue will be found.
MARKETPLACE UPDATED....
There have been some price reductions and items added to the Marketplace.
COMPETITION RESULTS....
Results for the Club Competitions and Fun Shoot are now available here on the Competitions page. Unfortunately, the Fun Shoot was affected by weather conditions, so not all of the events were held.
It is, however, apparent that none of our competitions are very well supported - maybe this year we should all make more of an effort to have a go. Suggestions have been made that competitions should be held during the warmer months, but even those that run for most of the year (including all summer) get few, if any, entries.
NRA CERTIFICATION CARDS FOR 2012 NOW AVAILABLE....
Don't forget that you need to have your NRA certification card with you when attending any of our shoots- spot checks are carried out, particularly at Altcar. You can collect your card from the Chairman, and the good news is that they are now valid for four years instead of just one. If lost, there will be a charge for replacement.
SHOOTING CALENDAR FOR THE NEW YEAR....
As far as is possible, all dates for 2012 have been confirmed. Note that due to poor attendance figures, the number of Altcar shoots has again been reduced. Please note that there was an error on the dates for May - the dates and days did not match up correctly. This has now been rectified (03/01/12).
SUBSCRIPTIONS....
Due to rising costs for range hire, insurance and licenses, the Committee has taken the decision to increase the yearly subscription with immediate effect. For current paid-up members this means you will be affected by the increase at the AGM in June 2012 when the subs are due; for anyone joining before then, the new subs will be charged at a pro-rata amount for the remaining period.
Details can be found on the Subscriptions page.
ALTCAR - PLEASE NOTE....
Do not let your Altcar range pass expire, get it renewed just BEFORE it runs out. You will need two photographs, with your name and the name of the club written on the back.
If you are going to attend an Altcar shoot, a prior phone call to either Alan W, or John C would be appreciated - on days when the weather isn't good, the shoot may be cancelled and it would save a wasted journey if we knew who intended going and could pass the news around.
