Club Event Updates!

One last reminder to everyone about our Installation Dinner on Saturday, February 4th at McCarthy's Family Eatery.....get your reservations in ASAP!  Contact Kevin at....kmg2256@gmail.com by January 30th.

Please note that our Annual Ice Fishing Party that was scheduled for Sunday, February 5th has been postponed until....Sunday, February 19th....ice permitting, of course.  Hopefully, Winter will decide to make a showing and temps will work to make some good ice fishing.   

Don't forget our next General Membership Meeting on Friday, February 3rd at 8 p.m.; word has it that some tasty Chili will be on the evening's menu. 

Home on our Range...

Just after Hurricane Irene blew through Putnam County last year, a fairly large tree fell on our back shooting area and took out almost two stations.  Right before Christmas, several members pitched in to do the repair work.

Thanks goes out to Dave Moscato, for getting all the necessary building materials together and to Don Hopko and Fred Milanese for their pre-repair, clean up in cutting the offending tree down to size.


On a fairly cold December morning, those who contributed their time and efforts to additional repair work were...Rich Armbruster, Bart Barticciotto, Jim Chenevey, Don Hopko, Patrick Johnson, Kevin McGuinness, Fred Milanese, Darwin Richmond, Nat Russo, John Sparano and Kevin Whittaker.

Additional thanks to Jim Chenevey for some great photos!

As usual, Annie at McCarthy's goes out of her way to provide the club with a great evening of Appetizers and a Buffet Dinner which everyone enjoys.

The cost is $35.00 per person with a Cash Bar for those wishing to gently bend an elbow or two. If you have not already done so, reservations must be made BEFORE January 30th so we can provide Annie with an accurate headcount.
