Hi All!
Summer is flying by. Hope everyone is enjoying the longer summer days at the range. Here’s a brief summary of events from the July 9 Club Meeting:
TOURNAMENTS:
·
We hosted 276 shooters at the Firecracker shoot on 6/30 and received positive feedback on the new “traditional recurve” style. We’re all looking forward to Oranco’s next big shoot - the Tomahawk Shoot in October.
·
Special THANK YOU to all our volunteers that helped set up, run and take down after the shoot. It was a hot weekend and your efforts are very much appreciated. We’re grateful for your support and value your contribution to a successful tournament!
·
Cherry’s Valley’s Big Bear Shoot is coming up the weekend of August 3-4. This is a great 2-day shoot and well attended by Oranco Members. Check out the CBH website for flyers and a list of events all over California.
