Warmer and less soggy days ahead, we hope.  The winter months in the past have been slow months for MCSSA, but anyone that has been out to the range the last few months knows that this has not been the case.  The range seems to continue to be busy no matter what the weather.  With the club year ending the last of March there are several important things coming up.

·         Officers and Board of Directors for the new year.  If you are interested in serving as an officer or on the board please let one of the current officers or board members know.  This is one way that you can have a voice in the direction that the club is going.  We are always looking for new people and ideas to improve the club.  As they say, “You don’t have to be crazy to be on the board but it helps.” The Officers and Board of Directors for the new year will be put in place at the March club meeting.

·         If you are ending the club year as a working member and you were unable to complete all the workdays, be sure to include $30 for each day not completed when you are renewing your membership.

·         Remember if you have Range Master Credits that you have not used you can use them toward the renewing of your membership.

·         There will be a workday March 24^th starting at 8:30 if it rains then the make-up date will be the 31^st. This day will let some of you get in one more workday before the club year ends.  If there is a project that you feel needs to be addressed on workday please let us know so we can make plans for it.

Web sites of the month:

·         If you are looking for video instruction or information that is gun related you might want to check out You Tube:  http://www.youtube.com

Club Meeting:

     The next club meeting will be a Board of Directors meeting at Gander Mt. Feb. 17^th 6:00.

     Thanks again for all you do to make MCSSA a great place to come and enjoy the shooting sports.  If there is something that you have in mind that would help improve the club even more please let us know.  Also if you would like to see something added to the monthly newsletter than let me know and we’ll see what we can do.
