We would also like to extend a very special thank you to Nobles Gary Ward and Joe Berry who have worked tirelessly for months to ensure this tournament was a success.

Please keep the family of Vickie Laye in your prayers. Vickie, her husband Robin, and their wonderful family, own and operate North Gaston Gun Shop, and have made our annual fundraiser possible for several years. They have always been supporters of this club and we extend our deepest condolences for their loss.

Celebrate the life of Vickie Laye and join others in sharing memories, stories, and condolences.

🚨Drawing Update:

In an effort to ensure that as many people as possible can attend, the gun raffle drawing has been set for Friday, June 5th.

We know, we know….. the suspense is killing us too!

We wanted to avoid pushing the drawing into June, but with graduations, Memorial Day weekend, and our upcoming golf tournament, we felt this would be the most convenient date for everyone.

Hotdog dinner will begin at 6:30 PM, with the drawing immediately following. If you’ve purchased tickets, come in, grab a bite, and cross your fingers!

We appreciate everyone’s continued support of this fundraiser and look forward to a great evening of fellowship and fun. If you still need tickets, please reach out to a club member before the drawing date.
