UPDATE:

Annual Toys For Tots Match (rifle & pistol) is Sun Dec 15. The entry fee is 1 NIB toy. However, the USMC warehouse needs toys before Dec 15 so they can process them. So, if you're attending, please drop your gift at your local box this week. Many businesses provide drop off places. You can locate them on the internet. Or, make a comparable donation to something like The Salvation Army or similar,reputable charity.
 
I am watching the weather for this weekend and right now they have some snow forecasted.

I will make the GO/NOGO call by 1700hrs Sat 12/14. We should have a more accurate forecast and a range condition report by then. If it is not a Mud Pit or Blizzard we will make a go of it.

If we cancel I will post here as well as sending notice out to everyone registered via practiscore

Thanks
