President's Corner for October 2023

Good September fellow members.

We have two guest speakers for the October meeting. Pamela VanBlunk, Bucks County current controller is running for Bucks County commissioner. Our second speaker is Warden Hannah Jimenez our new warden in Upper Bucks. She will be bring us the latest new from the commission.

Warden Jimenez has replaced Warden Shawna Burkett. Warden Burkett has recently been promoted to Sgt. We wish her the best at the new position and thank her for her years of excellent service.

Another item coming up is the sale of the clubs mower. See the flyer in this newsletter. The bidding will end at the close of the October meeting and the high bid will be announced at that time. Payment will be required before the removal of the machine from the property.

An article I recently came across, more than 100,000 Americans developed a meat allergy a after being bitten by the Lone Star tick. This allergy includes any type of red meat including venison. If you remember a couple of months ago I wrote in this column about Lyme disease.

I am not sure which would be worse, Lyme disease or not being able to eat meat? Use your tick spray.

Let’s see some harvest photos on the tack board.

Have a great month and I will see you at the meeting.

Outdoor Range - October

Details: Written by Bob Gular; Published: September 27 2023

Outdoor Range & Other Items

This month's Highpower match will be held Sunday, the 22nd and will be a standard match Service, match, sporting and target rifles will be allowed. The match will consist of 100 yards, 25 shots each, with a short break period between. Match begins at 9 AM.

Black Powder shooters will meet on Sunday October 1st at 9AM for the usual informal event. Muzzleloaders and black powder cartridge firearms qualify for this shoot. We won't rag on you too much if you use your in-line.

I have had a couple of reports of members (and guests) STILL disregarding safety procedures at the outdoor range. You are only allowed down range after all firing has ceased, all firearms recognizably made safe, unhandled and safety flagged. Look up see the safety lights are on. Stay focused guys.

Starting in Septemeber nominations are open for all line officer seats and two seats on the Board of Directors.

Shoot safely or stay home by all means!
