ESC hosted the State FFA kids shooting weekend May 16th. There were over 200 participants in archery and shooting events. They had a great time and plan to hold it again next year.
The 2nd annual Wa. State pistol Steel Challenge was a success with 83 participants from several states. Patrick is thinking about having a local club match in September.
Watch the newsletter for dates on this.
If the gate is locked open that means there is an event going on or L.E. is using the range. Please double check before locking the gate. Otherwise the gate is to remain closed.
There new steel targets for the 450 bay. These are appropriate for use by most rifles except for the largest calibers and any armor piercing ammo.
If we treat them nice it will last for quite a while. Please stop by Old World trading for your next purchase and say thanks for helping out the club with key sales.
Thanks Carl
