Immediately after our May 19th match we will hold a chicken fest! All the chicken you can possibly eat (courtesy of Chef Mike Patrick), along with soft drinks and other fixin’s.

Oh, yeah, we’ll also give out about 65 (suitable for framing) awards for the overall calendar year 2006.

The PPC range building is reserved! Wanna bring the spouse? Get him to shoot the match as well. Really, just bring the spouse, bring the kids, PLENTY of food! Wanna bring your dogs? Tough. Bring a doggy bag.

cya ALL there.

May Match Schedule Change

Saturday, April 21st, 2007

The normal RGPSC first Saturday match for May 2007 (only May) has been moved from May 5 to the second Saturday, May 12. The reason for the change is a pre-existing reservation of the the entire range for “Expo”. Note that we will have the regular third Saturday match on May 19, as well as the normal practice / orientation match on Sunday, May 27.

… That’s what the Range Officer Class consumed in just two days! The only reason it wasn’t more was that Jerry (by himself) was out setting up the practice stage, and then took it all down and put it away (by himself). If you did this class, the next time you see Jerry, you better thank him!

The class was great, everyone seemed to have fun, and learned a great deal at the same time. George Jones, who flew in from New Jersey to instruct the class, did a superb job, in spite of the wind. Oh, yeah, the wind did blow on Sunday afternoon. George learned something as well: New Mexico Spring.

22 new RO’s for the State of New Mexico: Hobbs, Carlsbad, Albuquerque, Deming, Las Cruces, and El Paso. Yup, we own El Paso as well, you just don’t know it yet.

Great class, thanks to all who attended. Special thanks to the Rick and the City Shooting Range Park. Great place, excellent staff. We’ll just have to do it again sometime. Like five years or so….
