Subject: 2020 New Mexico Sporting Clays HOF; Results are in!

Greetings Shooters,

Thanks to everyone who participated in the New Mexico Sporting Clays Hall of Fame selection process this  year. We had one nomination for Shooter Category, which did not go to voting. Our rules require a minimum of two nominations per category to proceed to voting. There will be no selection for Shooter Category for 2020.

Greg Anderson and Mark Parmeter were nominated for Service Category. Both bios illustrate their  tremendous contributions to the sport we all enjoy. The voting was close. However, Mark Parmeter is the 2020 selection for the New Mexico Sporting Clays Hall of Fame, Service Category. Congratulations Mark!

Thanks again for everyone who made the effort to submit a nomination, and those who reviewed the bios and
voted.

We will be open Monday, December 26 from 9AM to Noon instead of Christmas (we will be closed for Christmas. We will have no other holiday closings).

Beginning in June and running through August, we will be opening the range for night shooting on the 2nd Friday of each month (June 10, July 8, August 12). Each night 2 trap fields and 2 skeet fields will be open. The range will open at 8:30 p.m. for these night shoots.

(this isn’t directly related to our activites, but it seemed likely it would be of interest to some of our members)

Subject: FW: Volunteer proposed rule 19.30.15 open for public comment
Date: April 19, 2016 at 3:35:07 PM MDT

Greetings New Mexico Department of Game and Fish (Department) Volunteers,

Senate Bill 231 was introduced, passed, and signed by the Governor during the 2015 legislative session. This Bill amended 17-1-14 NMSA 1978 which directs the Commission to establish rules for volunteers that will be utilized by the Department. On April 14, 2015, the Department proposed a new Volunteer rule for the State Game Commission to consider.

This amendment to 17-1-14 NMSA 1978 requires the Department to develop a program to recruit, train and utilize the services of volunteers. Some considerations within the proposed rule include: Allowing volunteers to ride in/ drive Department vehicles, utilize department equipment, and create criteria for per diem and mileage reimbursements, and background investigations on potential volunteers.

In an effort to solicit public comment on a proposed new Volunteer rule, the following link is provided that will take you to the proposal under consideration.

The Department welcomes any and all of your comments. Please send your comments to darcie.schalip@state.nm.us

Your volunteer service is appreciated!

Fifty targets will be shot each week..There will be a $20 league fee plus $4 per round for members and non-members. This will be a handicapped league, so don’t be shy because of your ability. The competition will be with 2-man teams. We will help you find a teammate if you don’t have one.

Access to the range will be through the small gate directly adjacent to the west side of the classroom building; shooting at the range during this period will be limited to league participants.

Your league fee will be used for a cookout, awards, and door prizes. If you have any questions, concerns, ideas, or to sign up (and if you can’t make it June 3 but would still like to participate), please call Preston Benfield at 586-215-3060.

Jerry is going to be ordering shot from westcoast, he was wondering if any of  us are interested. Bags are $40.00, they are ordering #9, #8 & #7.5.  If anyone is interested just let Laura Messimer know, also they would have to pick it up from the shop.
