President’s Report (Jack Keightley)
Reminder April 9, 2011 is our Annual Veteran's 3D Target Shoot. Since we will not have a scheduled club meeting before then we will hold a brief meeting on April 6, 2011 Wednesday night after the fun shoot at the pavilion to discuss a workday or target & auction setup.
Like the previous year Marshall & Debbie Sidwell have volunteered to run the silent auction table(s).
Jack mentioned that we usually fry frog legs during the Veteran's shoot, but mentioned that the price per case increased by $30 dollars. Jack made a motion to go ahead and purchase the frog legs even with the increase and the motion passed.
Also, SCA voted to donate money to Ridgewood Elementary School in Arnold for the NASP. Even though the money has not been donated yet we are very excited to report that the team took 1st place using borrowed equipment. Way to go Ridgewood! Wait until they get newer updated equipment! Hopefully future SCA members in the making!
Finally, Wednesday night fun shoots start real soon so dust off your bow case and oil your release! We'll see you on the range shortly!
Vice-President’s Report (Joe Hajek)
Joe wanted to thank everyone again for their participation at the workday helping replace targets.
Secretary Report (Jon Adams)
Everything is just fine!

It was also brought to our attention that as a club we need to do a much better job meeting and greeting new members & guests. Please make a conscious effort to introduce yourself to anyone you see that may be new or that you just haven't met yet. We really do have a great organization! Let's show it!
Please support our SCA members who have family & friends serving in the Armed Forces.
