Rakowana Archers 2009 Calendar (updated June 7, 2009)

September 8 Monthly meeting at the New Salem Senior Center

September 26 Rak 600 and Fun shoot
Dues are now past due! The lock combination has been changed.

MOWER REPAIR- All work has been completed on the mower and it is in fine running condition. Many thanks to Keith and Bruce , for all their time in diagnosing electrical malfunctions and tracing them down to completion. So, if you wish to mow, please have at it. There is plenty to be done!

NEW TARGET CENTERS- Discussion on condition of foam target center condition. Inventory will be taken and pricing to be looked into.

LEMME’S- It was announced that Mario has left the building at the Central Ave. location. Brian from the upstairs gun shop to reopen in that area. No news as to whether Mario will reopen in another location.

FUN SHOOT- Our annual 600 round and fun shoot is to take place on Sat. Sept. 26 starting at 9:30 sharp.

ARROW NETTING- Sheldon has asked to borrow the net for an SCA event to be held on Labor Day weekend. As in the past we have extended this loan to that group.

GUESTS-The fee for guests shooting at the club is still $2. Guests should also sign in on the register so that they are accounted for on any given day.

SIGN IN-The sign in sheet will be redesigned to include an area for you to record any work done at the club that will go toward the five (5) hour contribution. The first thing you should do when you get out of your car is sign the register. We have very few rules to follow and I for one have a hard time understanding why some people can’t do that. Just do it please!

Meeting adjourned at 7:55 PM.

NEXT MEETING- The next regular meeting will be held on Tues. September 8th at 7:00 PM. This meeting will be held at the New Salem location.

Workshop Requests - John from the workshop has requested our help at various work parties but the notice has been much to short to get in this newsletter in a timely manner. One thing mentioned was the clipping back of the brush on the right side of the road going out to the club from the turn. Another is work or a blacksmith building and forge area. They would also like a sign to be placed at the turn to the field whenever we have an archery event going on. This is a safety concern so that other workshop members on the grounds will know that the field is in use.
