Sporting clubs such as ours do not operate without a lot of work, not only when we are open for shooting but also when we are closed. It is definitely not the kinda sport we can think about once a week and then forget about and relax the rest of the time.
There is so much to do, from licenses and permits, to range officers and showing new people how to shoot, to removing pesky possums and hostile takeovers., to just basic cleaning and maintenance. Literally a hundred little jobs that need to be done.
Which is why I am absolutely blessed to have an amazing committee which supports and assists me and our club getting back to where we used to be.
Sabine,Peter,Mark,Charlie and Jake thankyou for everything you do and who you are.
But I want to also say our members are amazing and always are willing to lend a hand when needed and I thankyou for being part of the Monaro Air Rifle club family.
And a special thankyou to young Rocco for helping me with the scoring machine. You bought a lot of smiles to us all.
Happy volunteers week
