Minutes from Previous Meeting:

Financial Report:
n/a Treasurer not present
President Report:
– Randy Anderson reported that Higgins Drilling estimated it would cost about $550 to replace the water pump in the Spotted Eagle Clubhouse’s well, which appears to be burned out. Randy motioned “We aprove hiring Higgins Drilling to replace the pump.” The motion was seconded and passed.
– Randy Anderson reported it will be about $1,200 to replace the gate lock at the rifle range with a new lock. The Board reaffirmed that there was already an approved motion to purchase a new lock. Randy said he will try taking the lock apart, changing the batteries, and cleaning it one more time before he orders the new lock.
Committees Reports:
Action Pistol:
Jesse Smith turned in $188 in Action Pistol shooter fees, and reported he had a receipt for approx $30 for supplies. He forgot the receipt and will turn it in next month.
Trap/skeet:
Chris Schlepp was not present, but Jesse Smith reported that Chris told him there has been very little participation. Most weeks it’s just Chris and one other shooter, sometime it’ just Chris. He reported that Chris was going to give it a few more weeks, and if we didn’t start getting shooters participating we will need to find someone else to open. As of yet, there have still not been any volunteers to open trap/skeet on Wed. nights and soon there will be no one for Sunday afternoons either.
Friends of the NRA Banquet:
Shane Adams reported that he spoke with the FNRA coordinator who said the club could purchase a table at their banquet for $1,450 which would include 8 seats/meals, a gun, and $500 worth of raffle tickets. This would be a way for the CR&GC to support the FNRA fundraising efforts that supply gun range and shooting sports/education grant to the local area, and the CR&GC could recoup part of the expense by raffling the table, gun, etc. at the CR&GC banquet in Jan.
After discussion, the Board thought this was probably more than the club is wanting to spend and Shane was asked to check with the FNRA to see if they could suggest a cheaper option.
Rifle Instructor Class:
Jesse Smith reported that due to heath reasons, the rifle instructor certification class is postponed until further notice, and would not be in time to hold a youth shoot this year.
FWP Hunter Safety Field Day:
Todd Burch reported the FWP Field Day held at the Spotted Eagle range on June 10th, had 28 students participate.
Concealed Carry Class:
Jesse Smith Reported that EDC, LLC. canceled the concealed carry class they had scheduled for June 10th due to the lack of enrollment.
Old Business:
Spotted Eagle remodel project:
The Board decided once the well is replaced, we will pressure wash the floor in the clubhouse, then fill the cracks and paint the floor with whatever materials Ace Hardware recommends.
Adjourn: 8:08
