A good crowd showed up this morning to shoot some trap and to partake in an early "Thanksgiving Lunch". We had 27 shooters to show up to a pretty nice frost and early morning cold temperatures, although it warmed up nicely as the day went on. We also had several shooters that drove a long way to help with the scoring, computer work and preparing lunch. We would have a hard time putting on shoots, if it were not for those that volunteer to help us. I would like to thank Charlie Ackroyd, Karole Miller, Jon Miller, Al Mazza, Greg High and Jim Wilson for all their help in putting on this shoot. They never fired a shot today, but they kept things running smoothly which allowed me to cook four turkeys without burning down the registration room:) OOPS I almost forgot to thank Sydney High and my wife Margaret for helping with lunch.
As far as the shooting went, Jeff Galloway and George Brown tied for high gun in singles with 98's and Jeff won the shoot off after 2 boxes. Lane Murray led all handicap shooters with a 93 and 2 shooters shy of a punch. Jeff Galloway won doubles with a solid 96.
