Hi Paul,
Yes all organized.
Coaches are Tom Lowndes and Adam.
Have 10 not counting Tom, Adam, Jenny and myself. Have a couple more in mind. Dont know how the Gippsland shooters are situated with the floods and all.
Weather permitting it will be an interesting day.
Barry.

Might need two more. My action went away again, and I can't guarantee it'll be back in time.

I'm reliably informed that the Tri-Challenge is off, because of rain today and expected to continue.
Not sure if another date is being decided - I guess Geoff Grenfell will have something to say soon.

Hello shooters,
As Captain of the Victorian State Full-Bore Rifle Team I have arranged another Tri Teams Challenge Match between the three shooting categories; Full-Bore Rifle State Team, F-Class Standard and F-Class Open.
To help administer this I have seconded Barry Davies F-Standard and Paul McCarthy F-Class Open as the other opposing team captains, who will be responsible to collate their teams and co-ordinate information to interested or participating members for the Tri-match.
The event will be on Sunday the 8th of July at the Wellsford Rifle Range Bendigo.
Shooting will be staged of 300, 600, 900, and 1000yds.
All teams will shoot on standard Full-Bore targets and scored on the Full-Bore system; example 50.10
Each team will be allocated two targets and responsible to supply their own markers, each team to consist of ten shooters to count for an aggregate score.
Lunch and refreshments will be made available in the Frank Morgan Pavilion.
To formalize the event I will be presenting plarks to the highest scorer in each category.
This shoot last year was very successful for all who were involved I regard it as a great challenge for my Full-Bore Team to compete in as a training drill and most of all having fun doing it! And that’s what it is all about FUN.
Geoff Grenfell.

Geoff,
Do you know if camping on the range (and the use of facilities) is permitted on Saturday night?
