Need To Know This Week
WOW! What a Bee!
Huge thank you to all those members who came to help at the working bee last weekend. All the targets were repaired; the range mowed; everything moved out of the clubhouse; a trailer load of rubbish taken away; and the clubhouse swept, cleaned, and rearranged.
Next we plan to replace the cabinet along the back wall with some open shelving, and find a different solution for the sign in desk so we can get all the drawers off the floor.
Let’s all play our part in keeping our clubhouse tidy and our equipment in great condition. Check out more photos here.

Evening on the Maunga starts this Wednesday
Our evening tournament series starts this Wednesday 20 November, and runs every Wednesday with the last event on 18 December. These events are hugely popular so the range will not be available for casual shooting from 3pm until 7pm on Wednesdays.
The LOC (local organising committee) would love extra helpers, so please contact Emma on clubcaptain@mgac.org.nz if you can lend a hand at one or more of the events.
