GET WELL WISHES We send our best wishes to Lenny Palma who is recovering from surgery. .

TRAP NEWS: Come up on Sundays to practice from 1 – 4 p.m. All shooters, whether seasoned or novice, are welcome to come and enjoy an afternoon of shooting at the Club.

WILD BOAR HUNT: Once again this year a group of members will be making a trip to Hillside Guide Service in Aurora, Maine for a weekend wild boar hunt. This will take place on the 26th, 27th and 28th of July. Anyone interested can contact either Vin Bartolomeo at 978-369-2428 or Dick Bregoli at 978-256-2715 for further details.

IRON MAN: IRON MAN: Although the weather was nasty the Iron Man was still held. Over 30 people signed up and 24 shot the event. Everyone who came had a great time. This year's Iron Man is Peter Dallaire! Mark Lewis came in 2nd and Jim Jackman was 3rd. Thanks to all who came and participated. Special thanks to Ray Phalon and David Wilkinson for working the kitchen. Those Hilltop Steaks were delicious! Warren Soar won the raffle and took home a tree stand donated by Blue Northern Trading Company in Ayer. Next year hopefully the weather will cooperate and we'll get 50 shooters!

ARCHERY: We have a 3D shoot coming up on June 23rd and setup will be on June 22nd, if you can help sign-up at the club or email Jim Jackman at james.jackman@verizon.net.

We are in the process of having wood chips spread over the archery target area, please have patience as we are waiting for volunteers equipment which is in heavy demand during this time of year.

Congratulations to Eileen Facenda who took First Place on Sunday and First Place overall for the weekend in Women’s Recurve at the 6th Annual Buckhorn Traditional Rendezvous held at the Stockbridge Sportsmens Club.

COUNCIL ON AGING LUNCHEON: We served over 40 lunches. The seniors all enjoyed themselves. The meal was fabulous. Thanks to everyone who helped out cooking and serving the meal. Special thanks to Joe LaPusata, Bruce and Alice Harvey, George Checkowski, Eileen Facenda and Art and Marge Stetson.

PISTOL: Centerfire matches will not be held during the summer. They will continue in the fall.

GROUNDS: If anyone has a bobcat or bucket loader, we could really use your help spreading the wood chips on the archery range. If you have some time do some racking behind the clubhouse and near the shed.

HELP: Do we have any musicians who would be willing to have a sing-a-long with the kids at the summer outing. It would only take a half hour of your time. You could enjoy the outing with your family. Please call Eileen Facenda at 781 899-7824.

Does anyone know a beekeeper? If so, call Eileen Facenda at 781 899-7824. We thought it would be fun to have a “bee observatory” at the Summer Outing. If you’ve ever been to the Topsfield Fair you know what a hit it is with children. 

WEBSITE: Thanks to everyone who has given us their e-mail address so they can read the monthly newsletter on line. This will save the club some money. As you know, postage keeps going up. We now have 98 members using the web site. If you haven’t already, please send your e-mail address to Bruce Harvey.

LOUNGE PROJECT: Thanks to the members who have put in their time on this project. It is moving along. Your effort is greatly appreciated

RAFFLE : Quite a few members have been busy selling their raffle tickets. We appreciate your effort. Buy a few yourself and sell a few to friends. It’s really easy. The Club is counting on your support.
