Grand Opening Ceremony on September 25th

The club held a grand opening ceremony and open house for members and the community to showcase our facility and provide an opportunity for the public and potential new members to understand our purpose and mission.  Approximately 150 persons visited and were impressed with our accomplishments and  plans for the future.  Facility tours were conducted by members.  Cowboy Action shooters held an exhibition, smallbore shooting clinics and women's shooting clinics were held throughout the event.  Snacks and refreshments were available, and drawings for door prizes were held periodically.  Twenty new members joined the club at the event.

At noon, Bill Last and Dave Leestma cut the ceremonial ribbon and presented the plaque commemorating the development of the new facility.  Dave and Bill did most of the "heavy lifting" in the acquisition and development of the new range, and the club owes them an incalculable debt for their service.

A special thanks to Roxane Bly for organizing the event.
