The first meeting was an initial start up meeting recapping last year's banquet as far as what worked, and what could be done differently. The last banquet meeting went over what we have so far for door prizes, bucket raffle, gun raffles, and silent auction items. We need many more door prizes, and booze raffle donations. Anything is appreciated. Booze raffle donations can be brought to the gun club. The banquet letters have been mailed out. If you need additional copies, or didn't receive one, please see the link below. Tom Hartman volunteered to provide a box truck for moving the prizes from Wolff Insurance to City Limits. Thanks Tom! The next banquet meeting will be Wednesday, September 27th at 6:30 at Wolff Insurance.

Beer will be $3 per can for this event. FALL LEAGUE: Fall league will consist of 300 targets. 50 - skeet, 100 - doubles, 50 - 18 yard wobble, 50 - handicap, and 50 - 16 yard. The worst 50 can be thrown out, but must throw out entire group of 50. There is a $10 lewis fee. TROPHY NIGHT: Trophy Night was moved a day later, and will be held on Thursday, October 25th. Doors open at 5:00. Dinner at 6:00, and Trophys will be awarded at 7:00. SHOOT FOR VETS: The annual Shoot for Vets had 42 shooters. We received many positive comments. $403.50 was donated to our Vets, much of which was lewis money donated back. We learned this date is the same as a shoot in Kewaunee, and turnout would be better in the future if it was held on a different day. SHED: The construction of the shed is now complete, with just a little wiring to be finished up. Thank you to Bob Meyer and all that helped build it! -The issue of the bubbling rubber flooring behind the bar and registration bar should be fixed. An anti fatigue mat was laid down over the top of new locking flooring. This should prevent the bar stool feet from sinking into the flooring. -Scott Christiansen got bids for snow removal for this winter. A motion was made and accepted to go with a bid from Manitowoc Landscape at $65 per hour with a truck, and $70 per hour for skidsteer. Thanks Scott! -Summer Trap and Skeet results are posted (with the exception of 3 shoots) -Scott Skattebo will be sending out thank you letters to the triple challenge sponsors. -George Luebke volunteered to run the booze raffle again for our banquet, and needs many donations. Donations can be brought to the Gun Club. Even just a 6 pack is appreciated. Gregg Wolf will donate a wagon again. Thanks George and Gregg! -We will get 20 announcements again from 98.9 and 92.1 for $105 for a hunting ad, and to promote the banquet. -The Gun Club now has a popcorn popper donated by Tom Kitzerow. Thank you Tom! -A winter trap league was discussed briefly, but tabled for future discussion. -Nick Sieracki and Tom Schulz volunteered for the nominating committee for 2018. If you would like to put your name in for a director position, please see Nick or Tom. -Wally Kitzerow spoke about an ad he read in a magazine regarding chartreuse (neon green) targets. We do have a pallet, and will be throwing some mixed in for fall league. -Hunting in the Gun Club woods is now by permit only. The hunting applications that were turned in have been reviewed, and returned with approval. If hunting at the Gun Club, please place the pink paper visible in your vehicle while you are out hunting. Remember you can rent the clubhouse for private parties. The cost is $100, but if you clean up the clubhouse afterwards, then $50 will be refunded. See the bar director Wally Norkosky to make reservations. The next meeting will be on Tuesday, October 3rd, at the clubhouse.
