Hello everyone,<br />
The new board of directors have met<br />
<strong>and</strong> we are up <strong>and</strong> running. I have<br />
been contacted by the Boy Scout<br />
District Council who want to have several scouts perform their<br />
Eagle projects at our facility. The objective for these projects is to<br />
implement them with little or no costs to the association. However,<br />
it may take a few volunteers from our association the help them<br />
achieve their goals. The board voted to allow them to build three<br />
bench areas for the trap pads. We need help with getting materials<br />
such as concrete, hardware, <strong>and</strong> lumber at cost or donation. Please<br />
contact me if you can help in these areas.<br />
There seems to be a growing dem<strong>and</strong> for law enforcement agencies<br />
wanting to use our facility for firearm qualifications. They have<br />
made their presentations to the board <strong>and</strong> we are working hard to<br />
try <strong>and</strong> accommodate them. We are trying to schedule them during<br />
casual hours without interrupting the casual shooting. The board is<br />
straight forward about placing our members first <strong>and</strong> then trying to<br />
accommodate these agencies. Remember, we are chartered as a nonprofit<br />
public service organization. However, we will not jeopardize<br />
our member’s needs.<br />
I don’t have a lot to say this month since I just returned from New<br />
York for a large family reunion. However, I have had several emails<br />
<strong>and</strong> phone calls about several of our long time members <strong>and</strong> their<br />
families going through various operations <strong>and</strong> illnesses. If you are<br />
aware of someone in this predicament, give them a phone call. It<br />
is much appreciated during these times. I wish you all a speedy<br />
recovery <strong>and</strong> get your health back.<br />
Respectfully,<br />
Denny<br />

<strong>and</strong> chilled fruit salad to help beat the heat. You<br />
will notice on the scores that there are 4 awards<br />

would give them out as 4th place awards. Ren<br />

NRA Wraps Up 21st Youth Hunter Education Challenge<br />
NRA is the largest pro-hunting organization in the<br />
world, <strong>and</strong> one of the most effective ways NRA helps protect<br />
the sport is through its Youth Hunter Education Challenge<br />
(YHEC).<br />
The 21st annual NRA International YHEC brought several<br />
hundred of the nation’s most serious young hunters <strong>and</strong><br />
their families to Pennsylvania’s northern tier for a weeklong<br />
test of hunting <strong>and</strong> shooting skills. The event, held July<br />
24-28 in Mansfield, Pa., marked the culmination of the most<br />
advanced youth hunting program in North America.<br />
In all, nearly 300 participants from 15 states participated<br />
in four shooting events <strong>and</strong> four responsibility tests.<br />
Participants fired muzzleloaders <strong>and</strong> .22-caliber rifles<br />
at NRA-approved action targets on courses designed to<br />
simulate hunting conditions, shotguns at clay targets on a<br />
multiple-station hunter’s clays course, <strong>and</strong> in the archery<br />
event, shot at three-dimensional game targets on a wooded<br />
course designed to replicate actual bowhunting situations.<br />
A new element to this year’s YHEC was a written test in the<br />
muzzleloader rotation, which tested youngsters on the safe<br />
use <strong>and</strong> maintenance of muzzleloading firearms.<br />
Participants in the challenge are divided into two age<br />
classifications, senior (age 15-18) <strong>and</strong> junior (age 14 <strong>and</strong><br />
under), <strong>and</strong> two categories, individual <strong>and</strong> team. In each<br />
event, the highest possible score for an individual is 300;<br />
for a five-member team, 1,500. Overall, the highest possible<br />
score for an individual is 2,400, while the highest possible<br />
team score is 12,000.<br />
For the second year in a row, groups from North Carolina<br />
claimed first place in both the junior <strong>and</strong> senior team<br />
categories, <strong>and</strong>, for the first time in five years, first-time<br />
champions were crowned in both the junior <strong>and</strong> senior individual<br />
categories.<br />
Youths from Forbush Elementary School <strong>and</strong> Forbush High<br />
School, both located in East Bend, N.C., took home the junior<br />
<strong>and</strong> senior team titles. The Forbush teams are both part of the<br />
Yadkin County School District, which allows hunter education<br />
<strong>and</strong> YHEC as extra-curricular activities. North Carolina, a<br />
traditionally strong hunting state, had a winning team in 1985,<br />
YHEC’s first year, <strong>and</strong> has an enviable record of accomplishment<br />
in the program over the years.<br />
Forbush senior team coach David Moxley has worked with<br />
local YHEC teams for two decades. He said of his team, “I’m<br />
so proud of them. Our kids put in a lot of long, hard work on<br />
all eight events. We focus just as hard on the responsibility<br />
events as we do on shooting.”<br />
In the individual st<strong>and</strong>ings, Brad L<strong>and</strong>is, 18, from Souderton,<br />
Pa., was crowned the overall senior champion. After<br />
finishing second overall to five-time YHEC champion Devon<br />
Babcock a year ago, L<strong>and</strong>is worked overtime throughout the<br />
past year to claim top honors in 2006. “I’ve been practicing all<br />
year, I didn’t stop,” said L<strong>and</strong>is. “The month before the competition<br />
I studied <strong>and</strong> practiced my shooting everyday. YHEC<br />
has taught me discipline <strong>and</strong> the ability to shoot <strong>and</strong> hunt the<br />
right way.”<br />
Top honors in the junior individual category went to Matthew<br />
Brooks, 14, of Fair Grove, Mo. Brooks, whose father Jerrold<br />
is a YHEC coach, practiced two to three hours each day to<br />
make himself a better hunter. “When my parents were home,<br />
I’d practice with my firearms. When they weren’t home, I’d<br />
study,” he said. “I learned to use a compass <strong>and</strong> shoot accurately<br />
with a variety of guns. And the studying <strong>and</strong> memory<br />
skills that I learned have helped with my schoolwork.”<br />

We apologize for missing last month’s newsletter.<br />
By RAY & NEIL<br />
The event everyone has waited for has finally arrived, the opening of the 2006-2007 hunting season. As most<br />
of you know, this is that time of year when the one time seasonal shooter comes to the property to get that special<br />
rifle sighted in, <strong>and</strong> he or she will be needing some special attention from you Range Masters in order to insure a<br />
successful <strong>and</strong> rewarding season. Sometimes a small bit of advice on how to best utilize the bench rest is all they<br />
might need. Whatever the need might be, your job is to make it happen with all of the safety skills you’ve acquired<br />
over the years.<br />
Hunters: Here's a short tip. Please remember, maintain, “eye relief”. Make sure you maintain a safe distance<br />
between your eye <strong>and</strong> the scope to prevent eye injuries caused by the recoil of the rifle.<br />
Shooters: Once again there seems to be an abundance of shooters that are either using the wrong target frames<br />
(short ones), or are placing multiple targets too low on the frame with the result that too many of you are not<br />
impacting the backstop. We have been seeing more <strong>and</strong> more of this practice over the past several weeks <strong>and</strong> it has<br />
to stop. Both of us have had occasion to call a cease-fire in order to correct this condition. Range Masters, you are<br />
charged with the responsibility of making sure each <strong>and</strong> every shooter has their targets placed on the frames as to<br />
ensure the correct backstop impact. Please remember also, you may not shoot at any uncovered rocks which may<br />
appear occasionally on the backstops. You have no way of knowing where that ricochet may be going. We have<br />
neighbors around us who are very tolerant of our needs <strong>and</strong> we are sure they do not wish to find your ricochets in<br />
their backyard. Here is another tip. We realize many of you shoot bulls eye competition <strong>and</strong> must do a rapid fire<br />
practice. Please remember that during rapid fire, you must, at all times, be aware of your muzzle location, to insure<br />
that each round is impacting the backstop. Here at EF&GA we still allow rapid-fire practice, however, most private<br />
<strong>and</strong> public ranges discourage this practice.<br />
The National Shooting Sports Foundation put it this way “…Practice Safety At All Times…” “ Shooting is among<br />
the safest of all sports. However, safety should never be taken for granted when firearms are involved. No trophy, no<br />
score, no competition is worth an injury to yourself or others. Safety is your first <strong>and</strong> foremost responsibility… ”<br />
Range Masters: The range master schedule books are located in the first aid box in the trap Ramada. Please<br />
remember to fill in the dates <strong>and</strong> times you wish to volunteer to st<strong>and</strong> a post. We cannot express how important it is<br />
for you to support this program. Without your help this <strong>Association</strong> could not function, so please sign up today.<br />
Range Master Appreciation day is October 29th. We need donations for awards for this great cause. Please send<br />
your cash donations to the P.O. Box address with the words Att.: Chief Range Master on the front of the envelope.<br />
Merch<strong>and</strong>ise donations can be given to any Board member or you can call either Ray or Neil <strong>and</strong> we will come get<br />
them. Thank you in advance for all of your support for our wonderful volunteers.<br />
Hunting is as old as mankind <strong>and</strong> as new as tomorrow.<br />
Range Master of the Month: is Harry Fagan, who can usually be found at the range on Mondays <strong>and</strong> Tuesdays.<br />
Harry is a retired grocery chain manager <strong>and</strong> has had a love for guns <strong>and</strong> the shooting sports for many, many years.<br />
He likes big game hunting, trap shooting <strong>and</strong> reloading. Please shake his h<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> say thanks when you see Harry<br />
on the property.<br />
PLAY SAFE, STAY SAFE<br />
