Good May Members.
What a great day for the youth opener. The kids fished really hard as the trout weren't really hitting the baits at a fast and furious pace. But I must say there were some really large fish on the stringers. The smiles were as large as the fish.
For the adult opener we had the annual breakfast. I don't believe anyone walked away hungry. I must thank the kitchen staff. They were there at five am to get the meal ready. It was a well oiled machine in the back as the food kept coming out just when needed. I was looking out of the clubhouse windows and saw members getting their favorite spots before the sun was up.
Well the debate goes on and on. When do we open rifle season in the state? Saturday or go back to Monday? Well the board voted to open the season once again on Saturday. But they did publish we heard your voices, but we are doing it our way again. One good thing is they are going to continue analyzing the issue. I feel better knowing that.
On a better note they are getting some things correct. You will now be able to purchase your doe license at the same time you get your regular hunting license at the end of June over the counter.
With that I bid you farewell till next month's note.
Be sure to get a kid into the woods.

The monthly Black Powder "Rondyvoo" will convene Sunday, May 5th at 9AM for an informal shoot. Muzzleloading and black powder cartridge firearms preferred but you may shoot anything legal.
This month's high power match will be held on Sunday, May 26th at 9AM and will be of the service and match rifle variety. You may also use a sporting rifle for this event but it should have a five round magazine capacity to compete in the rapid fire positions.
Other stuff: Kid Fish Saturday was the best attended I have seen in the thirty years I have been a BV member. The trout were biting and the kids were "squealin and reelin". You could pay big money and not see a better show.
The annual opening day breakfast was well attended, and for the first time in years actually turned a profit. Many thanks to the kitchen staff who all showed up on time and turned in a flawless performance.
Reminder: We will be hosting the annual 4H Multi-County Field Day on Saturday, June 8th. This will involve the entire facility from 7AM until mid afternoon. The venue will involve archery, air rifle, 22 rimfire, possibly shotgun, and other educational activities. We also serve hot dogs and drinks around noon and wouldn't turn down an offer to help with that.
Spring has finally sprung, enjoy it by shooting safely.
