JANUARY SHOOT REPORT:

Counting Andrew, we had a full house for our January shoot. Scott shot out of his mind, winning the shoot. He also had, not just one, but two Robin hoods. He’ll have to shoot the 5 spot targets if he continues shooting like that. Of course, shooting the half-length arrows only cost him one arrow. Maybe we’ll have to ban the Accu-rest bow from competition if it helps Scott that much! It won’t be that easy next time Scott, look at what you did to your handicap.

Results of the January 300 Round follows:

President’s message:

It is of little surprise when viewing our annual report that our treasury is still "bleeding". Our ongoing problem is still membership…or lack thereof. The vast majority of our members, past and present came thru word of mouth from work, other organizations and associations or friends. So…talk it up and if you know someone that is interested, follow up with a membership application. It is to this end that I have sent out (27) letters to previously active members who I thought may be interested in rejoining Bo-Arro. As expected a number of the letters (7) were returned…the result of having to use old data.

So far there have been no responses, but I am still hopeful. Included in the letter were some of our new functions, facilities, location and advertising our up and coming Polar Bear shoot and Banquet. Anyone interested in the content can review it at the next meeting.

Hope to see you at the next event! Dan

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK

I have finally replaced my tedious dial-up internet connection with DSL. My new e-mail address is djfarcher@att.net. Please send all reports and other e-mail info to my new address. Thanks

 

The successful hunters need to get the information on their deer and their nameplates to Scott if they want them by the awards banquet.
