Hat Project ----?

There has been some discussion with respect to a "Club Hat Fund Raiser".
-
It seems this was done in the past... see pics;
-
Scotty's version.
A J 's version.
 Here are two examples to get you thinking.
-
The hunters' orange might be well-received if we get them out there varmint season and fall hunting season.
-
-
-
Looking for ideas.  Please contribute your thoughts.

Take Time To Remember

It is our DUTY to "never forget".

-
-
-
Take time this weekend to pay respects to those who have died in the service of our country.  Even a pause in activities for a moment of silence would a nice tribute.

There Is History Here!

-

Our Club has quite a long history.  The earliest By-Laws located is a small booklet dated 1952.
-
Still in circulation.
 If any others exist, please bring them forward.  It is a good thing to know your origins.
-
By the way, the discrepancy in our name (By-Laws booklet versus Hat) has been solved.  The hat is correct.  That is the spelling used when our Club was registered.
-
Scotty found the old photo and did great job digitizing it.  It shows that the Club was well used in its early years.  Note the only structure is the "tool shed" which I am told doubled as a snack bar in the early days.  I count 7 cars and 8 or 9 people.  Interesting!
-
Left= 1963 Chrysler Newport ------- Center= 1960 Chevy Belair
Right= 1953 Pontiac Chieftain  ??????
-
Hopefully, we will see this amount of activity taking place again in the future. Since this photo, the Club House, the Pavilion, and covered 100 yard benches were added. And more recently, the Club has added the 200 yard bench, a regulation Horseshoe Pit, and an Archery Range.
-
As for activities, there is the Fishing Derby being planned for the 23JUN2018, so let's keep trying....
-
-
This image is a bit newer ------
Here is a possible fund-raising idea ?????
-
The artwork on this hat can be found on the 2009 printed By-Laws, but may date before that.  Anyone Know??
-
This photo suggests a possible fund-raising idea --- florescent orange hats for hunting season!  Any interest?????
-
At the May meeting, a different hat design from the past was brought up in discussion.  Stay tuned, if a pic becomes available, you will see it in a future post.
-
Bottom line, our Club has a strong history in the community, and we are trying to live up to our past by providing continued outdoor opportunities for a wide-ranging audience.

Again, THANKS to Scotty for the pics!!

New Library Link ----

Some may want to check out the new "Link" (PA CCW Reciprocity) in the Library.  Especially if you are planning some out-of-state travel.
-
btw ... the source of this link is "... PA.GOV", so it should be reliable.  In fact, look carefully at Virginia, and you will see that a change is due to take place on 16MAY2018 ...... 
-
Any problems with it, leave a comment so it can be fixed.

-
Be Safe Out There.

Also, be sure to read the previous post (9MAR) concerning the new standing committee proposal.  A vote on that proposal will need to be set up according to our By-Laws.

If you have any information to be considered at the April meeting, please send an email or leave a comment on this post.
