November Chapter Updates:

Our chapter food drive goes through Nov 18!

The fall trout stocking has been completed. These trout average 15-24”.

Did you know this barrel in the parking lot by the splitter holds chunk cherry wood? We do not cut up cherry wood for firewood but dry it and split it into small pieces for members that enjoy using smokers. Please help yourself!

The downed tree closed our range for about 6 hours on Thursday. The range was open to members again the next morning. We cannot thank volunteers Dave Campbell, Terry Henry and Mark Mineo enough for the fast response time clearing the road! Gerald Crowell arrived the next day and cut up the tree for firewood. In our time of need, our volunteer always step up!
