Custer Rod and Gun Club Members,

I know we’ve been sending out a lot of emails lately, but they should start winding down now. I just wanted to remind everyone that we will be having a work day at the Spotted Eagle clubhouse and shotgun range THIS Saturday May 13th. at 9:00 AM.

A few volunteers have agreed to have trailers there, and we will be hauling everything out of the clubhouse to either the dump or storage. We will then remove the last wall in the clubhouse and start the clubhouse remodel project by crack sealing the floor. We will also be painting the trap houses and repairing the benches/gun rests throughout the range. As well as mowing, weeding, etc.

We will need as many volunteers as possible for this one, as we will be sending folks off to the dump and off to the storage, and need people to continue at the Spotted Eagle while they’re gone.

Oh did I mention FOOD? Randy Anderson will be bringing preparing a milk can feast for the volunteers as well as beverages will be provided. And, all volunteers will be entered in the end of the year “Volunteer Incentive Gun Giveaway Raffle”

Thank you to our Volunteers!

I also want to thank everyone who came out and helped at the Rifle Range Work Day on April 29th. We had 16 volunteers which is unheard of participation in recent years. You will all be entered in the end of the year  “Volunteer Incentive” raffle as well. THANK YOU SO MUCH, the club is built on the backs of members who volunteer their time, and a few hours from many people make a HUGE difference in our club.

Trap Range Update:
Chris Schlepp is opening the trap/skeet range (please thank Chris when you see him) on Sunday afternoons at 1:00 PM. And yes, they’re shooting trap or skeet, depending on who shows up to shoot. Please support his efforts by stopping by and shooting a couple rounds to keep up the participation so he has a reason to continue volunteering his time.

We still do not have any volunteers to run the trap/skeet on Wednesday nights. We’ve had several people ask about shooting Wednesday nights, but none who are willing to by the opener for it. If you’re interested being responsible for opening every Wednesday night (or have a few people willing to commit to splitting the obligation) or you’re interested in organizing and running a summer trap league, please contact the club.

Thank you,
Jesse Smith
CR&GC Secretary
