September 27, 2009 Newsletter

We didn't get to shoot on Saturday due to the skies opening up, but at least the setup crew was able to finish without getting too wet. Thank you to Rich Ellis, Neil DeRue, Ed Henry, Paul Carlson, Patricia and Brett Rebol and anyone that I forgot.

On Sunday we had a really good turnout even with the threat of rain all morning. We had 46 shooters and 16 reshoots for a total of 62 guns.

The scorekeepers did well again this month, I only had to add up the scores for 5 or 6 stages. I could not have posted the results to the USPSA web site on Sunday night without your help. Thanks again!

We had eight (8) new shooters this month: Jolene Carnabuci, Jason Jasulevich, Wolfram von Kiparski, Scott Brown, Peter Brown, Jeff LaFlame, Aaron Smith and Robert Gardner.

LOST & FOUND

1 small Buck knife with USPSA Area 8 inscribed on the blade.

If you now see a U for your classification (that would be you Joe! Thanks for renewing), then maybe your membership has lapsed. USPSA has instituted a new policy. If you let your membership lapse for more than 60 days, you will lose your classification. If you want to keep your classification, please keep your membership current. Remember, if you sign up for (or renew) a USPSA membership at the match, you can shoot the match for free (that's like getting your USPSA membership for $25). For the new members, when you receive your first issue of Front Sight, use the PIN on the cover to sign up to receive an e-mail notification when results are posted to the USPSA Local and Major Match results page. Our results are always posted to the USPSA Local Match Results first. It takes a little while to massage the junk HTML pages that come out of EzWinScore.

We also have Crooked Creek Conservation Club applications. Ask Bill, Ed or myself for one if you are interested in joining. We hold a pistol practice on Wednesday evening starting about 4:00 PM for members.

I still have Muff Sweats for sale. 1 pair is $14 and two or more are $13 each. See Atto, Ed or Bud at registration if you would like a pair or two.

Our last match of 2009 will be on Sunday, October 25th at Crooked Creek in Hartsgrove. Setup will be on Saturday, October 24th starting at 1:30 PM. You can shoot one gun after setup. And we will continue the practice of running one classifier each match. Now, you don't have any reason not to be classified before that big match.

Signups for Sunday start at 7:30AM. We will run two (2) squads on Sunday at 8:00 AM and 11:00 AM. Please arrive in time to register, gear-up and be ready to shoot. I will try to design the stages to keep us on schedule so that you don't have to wait for the second squad. The last squad will help with teardown.
