ISSUE NO.129   September 2006

 

Dear Members,

  Not a lot of news to report this month.

 

CLUB NEWS

GNAS /SAA / E. Area Affiliation Fees for 2006 / 07.

 Once again we have reached the time when our affiliation fees are due. The fees, which are unchanged from last year are as follows:-

GNAS - £30, SAA - £21, and E.Area - £1

This means that each senior member will pay £52 and each Junior will pay £10 for GNAS and SAA.

All payments should be made by a cheque made payable to Lasswade Archery Club with the cheques given to me. As all the fees have to be sent to GNAS by 31st October, all payments must be received by me no later than Saturday 16th September.

 Once I have received your fees I will then issue you with your new GNAS sticker for 2006 / 07. If your fees are not returned by the above date then you will not be issued with your new sticker and your name will be deleted from the affiliation list, which has to be sent to GNAS. It will also be illegal for you to shoot at any GNAS Club or participate at any tournament.

 

OUTDOOR CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS

(810) 20th AUGUST 2006

After a 3 year break we decided to hold our own Outdoor Championships again. This time it was decided to shoot an American Round and 12 members took part.

For once the weatherman was spot on as it started to rain almost as soon as we had set up and started to shoot but by the time we had shot half the round the rain had eased off.

It was good to see some of our newer members shooting their first outdoor round and some good scores were shot.

David R. took the Gent’s recurve shield for the third time with Joan (Lady recurve) and Billy(compound) winning the Lady and Compound shields for a second time.

Jack won the Junior shield for the first time. In a break from tradition the four winners received an attractive marble plaque to keep in place of a gold medal. And finally, a big thank-you to our Lady Paramount :-  Jean Feeley.

The results are as follows:-
