"When some of my friends have asked me anxiously about their boys, whether they should let them hunt, I have answered, yes - remembering that it was one of the best parts of my education - make them hunters."

Henry David Thoreau, 1854


“A citizen who shirks his duty to contribute to the security of his community is little better than the criminal who threatens it.” - Robert Boatman

IDPA--Rifle Sportsmans Club August 15th 2009

Shooters:
Here we go again...start planning for another great day on the range at the Rifle Sportsmen's Club, Saturday, August 15th for the monthly IDPA match.
At the risk of redundancy...or repeating over and over again...here's the scoop:
  • Match starts at 10:00 am with a brief safety meeting; sign-ups at 9:30 am. Please be on site and signed up before 10:00 am so we can get underway in a timely manner.
  • Cost is $20.00.
  • Three stages are planned along with another run (or stumbling) through the "House of Death." The twisted scenarios will again see if somebody can actually beat the stage.
  • Bring a concealment garment. You most probably will need it.
  • Bring proof of IDPA membership or proof of application to join. (Does not apply to first-time shooters.)
  • Per the rule instituted last month, new or first-time shooters will be required to shoot the Instructional Classification Match. First-time shooters (or others who desire to shoot the Classifier) should contact Char Stuart by Wednesday, August 12th, to reserve a place on her schedule. You can email her at iskater@rof.net or call her at (970) 384-0417. Please do not call her after 8 pm!
  • If you are planning to bring a first-time shooter to the match, please have them contact Char about the Classifier. It will be a big help to her.
Regards,
Ken Andrews
