It seems to be working out well, and he hopes the next President will continue with it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reports of Boards and Standing\/Special Committees:<\/strong><br \/>\nRifle Range &#8211; Jesse Smith reported that in 2015 the club received a grant from the Friends of the NRA for just under $6,000. The grant was used to expand the pistol range from 3 bays to 5 bays, as well as installing a septic tank, and bathroom\/outhouse that can be used year around regardless of weather. The bathroom building also has a storage area to be used for targets and props for groups using the pistol bays.<\/p>\n<p>Jesse Smith reported that the club spent approx. $4,000  to install the steel targets, that the club voted for at the 2015 Annual Meeting, on all the rifle\/pistol ranges. He said in the approx. six months since they&#8217;ve been installed the steel is holding up well, but the support frames and chains are in need of repair because of people shooting the frames instead of the targets.<\/p>\n<p>Jesse Smith also reported a guy from Baker held a Prairie Dog silhouette shoot at the rifle range, and part of the proceeds was supposes to go to the Wounded Warriors and a local foster parent group in Miles City. It didn&#8217;t have the turnout he hoped for, but the guy who put it on hopes to have a better turnout this year.<\/p>\n<p>Jesse Smith reported we repaired the window frames on the rifle range clubhouse and painted trim.<\/p>\n<p>Randy Hart reported the Cowboy Action Shooting is going well, they are holding shoots every 3rd Saturday of the month, and are growing their matches a little more than in the past.<\/p>\n<p>Shotgun Range &#8211;<br \/>\nCheri Reed reported that trap shooting hasn&#8217;t been as active this year because 2 years ago the traps got flooded, and one thrower is still not working properly. Ken Boschee and Cheri have been working on the trap with the aid of the manufacturer, but even the manufacturer can&#8217;t figure out what is wrong with it. Cheri said they hope to get the second thrower running and be more active in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Cheri reported despite the thrower breakdowns in 2015 we still managed to hold a Boy Scout shoot, Kids shoot, MCC College shoot, and a Beginners shoot. We also shot skeet a couple times.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Old Business:<\/strong><br \/>\nN\/A<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Business:<\/strong><br \/>\nRandy Anderson  Reminded everyone that our insurance doesn&#8217;t cover the club if we let non-members use the range unless it&#8217;s part of an event that has been pre-approved in the Board Meeting minutes before the event, or they are a guest of a member, and the member is present.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nomination and Election of Officers and Board of Directors:<\/strong><br \/>\nNominations for the position of President were:<br \/>\nRandy Anderson, accepted<br \/>\nThere were no further nominations made.<br \/>\nRandy Anderson was elected by default, his term expires January, 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Jesse Smith motioned, &#8220;We take nominations and vote to fill the rest of Randy Anderson&#8217;s term as Vice-President before we go any further in the elections.&#8221; The motion was seconded, and passed.<\/p>\n<p>Nominations for the position of Vice-President:<br \/>\nClint Meidinger, declined<br \/>\nJesse Smith, declined<br \/>\nTy Rainey, accepted<br \/>\nThere were no further nominations made.<br \/>\nTy Rainey was elected by default, his term expires January 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Nominations for the position of Treasurer were:<br \/>\nCheri Reed, accepted<br \/>\nThere were no further nominations made.<br \/>\nCheri Reed was elected by default, her term expires January, 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Nominations for the 4 available two year positions as Directors:<br \/>\nJim Keith, accepted<br \/>\nTy Rainey, declined<br \/>\nMarty Scheid, accepted<br \/>\nTodd Burch, accepted<br \/>\nRandy Hart, accepted<br \/>\nThere were no further nominations made.<br \/>\nThe 4 nominees Jim Keith, Marty Scheid, Todd Burch, and Randy Hart were elected to the 4 two year Director positions by default, their terms expires January, 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Nominations fill the last year of the vacant Directors position temporarily being filled by Larry Hudson:<br \/>\nMatt Lewin, declined<br \/>\nLarry Hudson, accepted<br \/>\nThere were no further nominations made.<br \/>\nLarry Hudson was elected by default, his term expires January 2017.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Good and Welfare:<\/strong><br \/>\nN\/A<\/p>\n<p><strong>Door Prizes and Raffle Items:<\/strong><br \/>\nDoor prize winner: Member #176 was not present, and was redrawn.
