June Newsletter

DSC/FSC Members, it has come to our attention that we are missing two different sets of steel targets from the indoor range. There is no record of anyone checking them out or requesting from anyone the use of these targets. The missing are the two .22 falling plate sets and the two large metal pistol popper targets. Please return these or if you have any information please let us know. As you can see we are only open two times a week during the summer schedule. This schedule is also in the Monday Daily Republic. Thanks to those of you that are opening for these times.

The DSC is doing well but we do need all of you that are part of DSC to support us all in any way you can as often as you can. Come to a meeting and find out if there is a way to help out. Thanks for being a DSC member. Chuck O. S/T

May Newsletter

The June club meeting will be June 4th at 7PM. There are still a few of you that have not submitted your NRA numbers. If you have not, please do as soon as you can. Mail to PO box 795, Mitchell SD 57301. As you can tell by the calendar we have a started the DSC summer hours. If you have any questions you can call 996-4190 my home phone. We do thank all you for being members and coming out to the range when the range is open however there are infrequent times when the person that opens the range may not make it. These people are all volunteers so please don’t be too disappointed if the range is not open. If we need to be open more contact us and we can make adjustments to the calendar.

The best to all.
Chuck Oster

A couple updates

On Sunday, May 5th at 2pm, we will be hosting a fun 22 rifle shoot.  Any rifle, any sights.  Stop on in.

Also, starting in May, we will be switching over to summer hours and therefore will no longer be open on Tuesday nights.

March Newsletter

Thanks, to all that have paid their range dues. For those who have not please do so. DSC is $60 for family with an e-mail address that we can send the newsletter to. $65 if we have to mail it out. I am including a copy of the app for you to use. (Disregard the app if you have renewed) Please renew your NRA membership if you have not done so, this is a requirement to be a member of DSC. Check the NRA site for reduced rates and we do need all the members we can get right now with the current environment in DC.

December Newsletter

Dear Davison Shooting Club and Firesteel Shooting Club Members:

     As my 3rd year as your Secretary-Treasurer comes to a close, I want to thank you all for the opportunity to serve you. My term limit is up and cannot be re-elected at this time. If you would like to see the Club “from the ground up” as they say, this is the Board Position to hold. It requires attention to detail, patience, time, and of course, some effort. The rewards are huge, too. You get to work with a great bunch of fellows who want to see more people enjoying the shooting sports as we try to keep the Club available, the costs affordable and have fun doing so. We operate on behalf of you, our members. Let’s face it, gun clubs are becoming fewer, further apart and much more expensive. Because we have such an active group of members who are willing to volunteer their time, we all benefit. Whatever your talent, skill or profession, we’ve got a spot for you.

     As always, I hope to see you on the Range or at a meeting.

Sincerely, Valerie M. Potzler, Secretary-Treasurer                                                        November 2012

November Newsletter

Hello Shooters!

Well, folks, Ed and I both missed the Board Meeting. Therefore this Newsletter is a bit tardy. My apologies. However, I am also sending the December Newsletter so that we all can make the December Board Meeting.

We elect our new Board Officers and Member(s) annually on the last Board Mtg of the year for the following calendar year. Come out and cast your vote or run for an Office. If you’ve never seen your Board in action, this is a perfect opportunity to meet with other members. And while you’re here, have a nice hot bowl of Ernie Kreth’s famous chili. It’s a crowd pleaser and feels so good on a cold December evening. We look forward to seeing all of your there. If you’re interested in running for an Office and want to know more, give us a call and we’ll be happy to answer your questions. In December, there will be an Open Range on Tuesdays from 7:00-9:00 pm. Gary Kingsbury will be the Range Officer on these evenings.

WE HAVE A NEW WEBSITE! Thanks to the efforts of Jason Bruhn, the Davison Shooting Club has a website at: www.davisonshootingclub.org. You will be able to see our Newsletter, Calendar and other information. SINCE THE NEWLY ELECTED OFFICERS WILL NOT BE SHOWN IN THE DECEMBER NEWSLETTER, THE INFORMATION WILL BE POSTED ON THE WEBSITE AS IT BECOMES AVAILABLE.

October Newsletter

Hello Shooters!

Well, Shooters, pheasant season will soon be upon us. So, if you want to sight-in your rifles you can do so at the outdoor ranges in Woonsocket or Epiphany. HOWEVER, their ranges are CLOSED on their Opening Days One and Two. You may wish to call ahead of time to learn those dates. (They’re not the same dates as ours.)

The Thursday night League (this is not the Postal League) shooting will begin either November or December. For more information about the League, please contact Ernie Kreth.

The Postal League shooting will begin either in December 2012 or January 2013. For more information about the Postal League, please contact Gary Hendrix.

Coming up soon will be the Election of Officers for the DSC/FSC. Your vote matters so please come out to the December Board Meeting (first Tues of the month). Perhaps you would consider running for one of the Offices. We need a President, Vice-President, Secretary-Treasurer and a 3-yr Board Member. There are only 12 meeting in a year with a RARE emergency meeting. This is your opportunity to bring your thoughts and ideas to the table. We hope to see you there.
