🎯 FAMILY & FRIENDS DAY – WHAT A DAY! 🎯

What a fantastic day at SSAA Newcastle! 🙌

Family, friends, mates and even a few brave solo shooters came along and everyone got stuck in! 🎯

There were plenty of laughs, friendly competition, new experiences and a whole lot of encouragement. The atmosphere was inclusive, supportive… with just a cheeky dash of rivalry! 😉🏆

A massive thank you to our friends at HVTM for joining us, helping spread the word and making sure everyone went home with a fantastic goodie bag. 🎁

👏 And a huge shout-out to our organisers and amazing Range Officers for giving their time and making the day such a success.

🥪 Lunch was sourced from local butcher and SSAA member Collins Choice Cuts keeping everyone fuelled and supporting the sport!

Missed out this time? You’ll definitely want to keep an eye out for the next one! 👀🎯

We had an absolute blast and can’t wait to do it all again!

Thanks to everyone who came along and made it such a memorable day. ❤️
