Just a reminder that Monday 20th December is our last indoor shooting session this year.  Indoor shooting is then scheduled to resume on Monday 31st January 2022 after our usual extended festive break, which is due to Dean Close using the hall to hold mock exams.

The next beginners' course is also due to start on Friday 28th January, hence there will be no member shooting on that evening or for the subsequent three Fridays (4th, 11th & 18th February).

We have some outdoor shooting sessions planned for January at the CACCSA Field on Saturdays (8th, 15th, 22nd & 29th) from 1000 to 1200.  Please ensure you book in advance as go ahead of these is dependent upon having adequate turnout to cover the cost of the sessions.

• 1st Course - Starts Friday 5th November 2021
