Dear Solstice and Shooting Celebrators:
The thermometer read 6 deg, a light snow was falling, and the sky was cloudy when the shooters were called to the line for today’s .22LR 100yd Bench Rest Winter Fun Shoot, the second of five scheduled this season.
Ten matches were logged, three with irons and seven with scopes. One shooter, Adam Wendt, came all the way from Oregon to compete, and one nine year old, Henry Wendt, joined his dad and uncle for a morning of competition. Hopefully both will not be strangers for these, and next summer’s .22LR 50yd Bench Rest Fun Shoots.
Thanks to all who helped with any and all aspects of the match – set-up, scoring, clean-up, providing heat, etc. And thanks to all who braved the cold, snow, wind, and the sun low in the sky to test their equipment and skills on the firing line.
The next match is scheduled for Sat Jan 20, 2018. Watch your email for details.
