It was decided at our monthly meeting November 3rd that we will not be changing to our normal winter hours. Instead, our hours of operation will remain as they are, 9:00 a.m. ’til Noon on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays throughout the winter months.

The date of the September meeting of MVSS has been changed from September 1 to September 8 and the location has been moved to the classroom building at the shooting range.

We are in need of someone to volunteer to be a cashier for Sporting Clays. We need someone to be there from 8 till noon with relief from Scott or Phil so that you will be able to shoot a round or two. If interested in giving us a hand please contact Scott at the following email address: gardenhire@zianet.com

Pat Mathis has been elected to a three-year term as a member of the Board of Directors, replacing Dennis Moll whose term had expired.  A big thank you to Dennis for his service both as  a director and operation of the trap ranges!

We are awaiting approval of a grant application to New Mexico Department of Game Fish to construct Skeet Field 4

We are expecting ATA to certify our facilities so we can conduct registered trap shoots by early March.

Rich Norton presented a donation of $2,000 for the purchase of an additional Canterbury Wireless Voice Release System.  Fritz Lawrence indicated he would make a donation to cover the cost of another Canterbury system.
