Raffle Committee Meeting

We will be having a raffle committee meeting Wednesday March 8th at 7pm.  If anyone is interested in being on the raffle committee show up this Wednesday at the club.

We are in NEED of someone to run the trap desk on Tuesday nights from 7-10.  It involves taking money for trap rounds and having people sign up to shoot.  No experience necessary, and your volunteer hours will count towards dues reduction.  If interested contact Ed at 200-3334  

Ok folks for some reason roadrunner and aol emails dont like bulk email so when ever i send emails from evans rod and gun alot of your emails get kicked back?  I send emails almost weekly and anything important that i email i also add to our web site on the NEWS tab http://www.evansrodandgunclub.com/

so if your not getting emails you have a few choices:

1. you can call and complain to roadrunner or aol and tell them not to block our domain.

2. you can check our web site on a regular basis to make sure your not missing any important information

3. you can get a real email like yahoo or gmail or outlook :-)

thanks

Become a Citizen Scientist Through FrogWatch USA

New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC), in partnership with Friends of Reinstein Woods, will train interested volunteers to help FrogWatch USA on Tuesday, March 21 at 7 p.m. at Reinstein Woods Nature Preserve in the town of Cheektowaga, Erie County. Community members can join an international team of citizen scientists by monitoring frog populations in the many wetlands throughout the preserve. The training is designed for people who are able to commit to monitoring at least one evening a week throughout the spring. Participants will learn to identify local frogs and toads by their mating calls and how to record data to be submitted to a national database. This data provides valuable information on the rise or decline of local amphibian populations and contributes to national conservation efforts. Registration is required for the training. Contact Reinstein Woods at (716) 683-5959 to sign up. Reinstein Woods Environmental Education Center is located at 93 Honorine Drive in Depew, about three miles from the Walden Galleria mall.

The trap committee meeting originally scheduled on Tuesday was rescheduled because we were short handed on Tuesday night trap.

The new meeting is scheduled this Saturday 2/25/2017 at 11:00am. Anyone interested in improving trap/skeet shooting at the club are welcome.  The meeting will be short and there is a prepared agenda of topics.

Our tentative date for the trap banquet is on Saturday April, 29 2017. To insure we order the correct amount of food, a $10 deposit for each attendee is required. Payable at the trap desk. League shooters will be refunded their deposit at the banquet (guest deposits are not refunded).

All of the Loaded Gun-Locker raffle tickets are sold. We will be pulling the winning ticket this Tuesday during trap shooting 2/28/2017 7:00-10:00. We will also run a 50/50 raffle.

The tickets for the Ruger Precision Rifle raffle are selling fast. Please stop by the club to purchase tickets before they are gone.

if you are not getting emails from the club please send me your email address to evansrodandgun@yahoo.com

for some reason people with roadrunner emails are not getting delivered because roadrunner sees alot of emails coming from evansrodandgun@yahoo.com and marks them as spam and they are not getting delivered.  Nothing we can do about that, I would recommend a yahoo or gmail email address.
