Thanks
As we begin a new year, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the volunteers at MVSS that make it possible to have such a great facility for our members and our local community. Without these dedicated individuals it would not be possible to sustain the operations of the skeet, trap, and sporting clays ranges. The next time you are at the range, please take time to offers your thanks to those that make it possible for you shoot at a first class shotgun range.

Shotgun Range Closures and Skeet Shoot
The shotgun range will be closed on both Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve except for a non-registered fun skeet shoot on New Year’s Eve. For details on the fun skeet shoot please contact Preston at 586-215-3060. The registered 4×50 skeet shoot lacked sufficient interest to hold the event.

Winter Skeet League — More Information
From Preston:
Questions I’ve had about winter League that may be of interest to all.
- Once you have obtained a class you never drop to a lower class but by shooting well obtaining a higher class is possible.
- You must declare you are shooting League round by placing your name on score sheet before shooting station one.
- Each shooter will pay a league fee of $20.00 which 1/2 will be donated to youth shotgun shooting, the other goes to our end of league luncheon and awards. Rounds for League are $4.00.
Annual club membership is $50.00 for a calendar year. You might want to consider giving memberships for Holiday gifts. I welcome inquiries and questions

Turkey Shoot & Tamales
On Sunday, Dec 17, we will be giving away two turkeys for all who shoot trap and two turkeys for all who shoot skeet. The way it will work is a ticket will be put in a bucket for each round of skeet or trap that you shoot and at the end of the day (noon) two tickets will be drawn out of the skeet bucket and two tickets will be drawn out of the trap bucket and the lucky ticket holders will win a turkey. Tamales and other condiments will also be served that day in the storage building courtesy of the Parmeters.
