Our Dinner Committee trainer, Glenn Pomerantz, can help guide you through the effort. Contact Glenn at 845.656.1284 or gapref01@gmail.com for more info.

Update – We have been trying to run the dinners efficiently by requesting reservations no later than the first Tuesday of the month. Thanks to everyone who has done so – but there are still too many late ‘walk ins’. Reservations made after the first Tuesday of the month will now be $20.00 per plate .

Roundup

A couple of shooters left quite a few fired shotgun hulls scattered around at the 300 yard range. This is not acceptable . Pick up any fired shotgun shells and debris when you are done shooting. You know who you are!!

We are looking for a few members to consider contributing to the club leadership. Get involved in the Board of Directors – start by stopping in for a meeting or two. Interested? – let me know scottr@wrg.club .

Snow plowing – We are looking for proposals for snow plowing the club driveway, parking lot and 300 yard range parking lots.
