My favorites (in no particular order) are Junior Rifle, Junior Pistol, Junior Trap, Work Parties, Combat Match, AR-15 Steel Match, Annual Barbecue, Cracker Shoot, Trap, 5-Stand and a few others. I would participate in more events but I keep having to go to work and keep my beautiful wife happy at home (doing the dishes and taking out the trash). I was thinking that all of these events have one thing in common – they all require a lot of work to set up, run, and tear down. Each event has a shoot chair that orchestrates the mayhem and makes it all work properly. In every case, without a bunch of volunteers pitching in to help out, the shoot chair would be overworked and grumpy. Because we have a great bunch of participants, we usually have a lot of volunteer help to make it all happen. I have had to run a few events so I know how critical it is to have people offer to help out and make my life easier. I have also talked to numerous shoot chairs about this and we all agree – We all appreciate when people step up and help out to make events run smoothly. If you have helped set up and/or tear down an GUNTHER event and you wondered if anyone noticed, believe me – it is noticed and appreciated greatly. New * Used * Consignments Tues. thru Sun. 10am - 6pm I Make Time to Attend a General Meeting www.GuntherGuns.com Bring a friend to the next General Meeting and one or both GUNS 2717 Loker Ave West * Carlsbad * 760-444-1100 of you could win a few bucks.

J&B I 2019 Scholarship Winners EF&GA believes that education is an important part of Plumbing becoming a productive member of society. Each year we Inc hold a scholarship award contest for EF&GA members, & Drain, members’ children and members’ grandchildren. In order to qualify, the applicants must fill out the application and write an essay that meets the required criteria. All of the (760) 745-9990 applicants that qualify are have their names placed in a hat and a random drawing of up to four names are selected. This year the winners are Max King, Drianna Brinkmeier, Wyatt Boublil, and Aaron Ferguson. If you know them, be sure to congratulate them. I Coaches Course (10/20/2019) One of the many areas where we need more volunteers is in coaching. We need people to coach for the Junior Marksmanship Programs, Women On Target, and other introductory classes and events. If you are interested in participating but question your abilities as a coach, perhaps the Coaches Course would be a good place to start. The class is a full-day event and lunch is included. Skills for coaching include but are not limited to the skills that are used for shooting. When you learn to coach a specific discipline, it forces you to consider and break down the discipline to a combination of minor components – stance, breathing, trigger control, etc… Because you are forced to dissect it, you re-learn the discipline and become better at it yourself. Also, when you watch a new shooter improve with your assistance and watch them get stoked on their own progress, it is gratify- ing and motivating for yourself. Join us for the Coaches Course and learn how great it can be to coach someone. Please email Ren Everett at [email protected] if you would like to attend. Reservations are not required but strongly rec- ommended so that we can plan for enough food. I Soda Machine Over the past 6 months or so there has been an ongoing saga over the soda machine on the West side of the Trap Ramada. There were problems with getting it refilled and general service issues. After a slew of discussions, negotiations, arguments, threats, and certified letters, the old machine was finally removed. There was a minor casualty from the removal of the old machine. The security cage was damaged but that didn’t stop us. Chris Cote brought up his Escondido Fish & Game Assoc. P.O. Box 460506 welding gear and put it back together again. Escondido, CA 92046 Pub. Monthly, Vol. 22, Issue 10 Dossier continued on pg. 12 3 JUNIOR CORNER by Patrick Russ Junior Rifle (9/15/2019) On September 15th, we had another great Junior Rifle event. The weather was warm, but not hot with a gentle breeze starting about noon. We had approximately 70 kids. These kids did an amazing job as usual. I would not want to be working the scoring table this month as many of the scores were extremely close. I would like to thank the Navy Corpsman of the 1st Marine Division for volunteering with our Junior Rifle program. These young men showed up at the crack of dawn, on their day off, to work with us. They coached the kids in the fundamentals of rifle marksmanship. As the guy that runs the line for this program and a Marine, I can tell you that I loved having a firing line full of Navy Corpsman. It was a huge relief because my biggest fear is that something bad happens at one of these events. With a line full of Corpsman, I knew that if anything did happen, they would receive the best possible care. These guys are life savers, we couldn’t have been in better hands. Not to mention, these guys really knew their stuff with many shooters getting their best scores ever. The kids came away healthy, happy and with a great experience. Just a reminder, Top Gun is coming up soon. Will you be on that list? The November Junior Rifle event will be your last chance to improve your overall scores. Junior Trap is Back Chris Cote has stepped up to work with Curt Summers and get Junior Trap going again.

  • 2020 Cmp National Rifle and Pistol Matches Cancelled
    May 2020 2020 CMP NATIONAL RIFLE AND PISTOL MATCHES CANCELLED After thoughtful consideration and reflection, the Board of Directors of the Civilian Marksmanship Program announces the cancellation of the 2020 National Matches at Camp Perry. “This decision was not arrived at lightly, but was prompted by restrictions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. These matches date back to 1903 and have been held at Camp Perry since 1906,” said Judith Legerski, CMP Board Chairman. “The health and safety of our competitors, participants, vendors, military support, volunteers and staff members is of the upmost importance — overriding even the historical imperative of maintaining the continuity of the Matches,” agreed Legerski, with Chief Operating Officer Mark Johnson and Programs Chief Christie Sewell. “We were unable to come up with a manner in which we could safely produce the Matches. Housing and pit duty were amongst the many insurmountable problems faced by the CMP Board,” Legerski explained. The CMP looks forward to the 2021 National Matches at Camp Perry as the best marksmanship celebration ever! In the meantime, please stay safe and healthy at home, as we prepare for the new normal ahead of us. All CMP operations have been shut down since mid-March and a full resumption of business remains undetermined. Full refunds will be made to those who have already registered. 2020 NRA NATIONAL RIFLE, SMALLBORE RIFLE AND PISTOL MATCHES CANCELLED National Pistol, Smallbore Rifle and High Power Rifle Championships, Camp Atterbury, Edinburgh, Indiana Due to the current state of affairs surrounding COVID-19, the uncertainties associated with this pandemic at present, and shutdowns across our country that has impeded vital preparatory work, the National Rifle Association has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 NRA Precision Pistol Smallbore Rifle and High Power Rifle Championships.
