The Board of Directors has voted to purchase three new 5-stand machines to replace some of the very worn and well used machines that we have been using.
Two new sets of wired microphones have arrived. The new Pat-Trap machine has been ordered and should be arriving soon. Soon all trap fields, Fields 1-6, will have Pat-Trap throwers. This will provide consistency of throwers, parts, and maintenance etc.
Field 1 is still not operational. The machine is being repaired and will be up and operational by Winter League.
The club is in need of shooting instructors. If you know of any please refer them to Roger.
Some language changes to the Club's By Laws have been proposed and approved. It includes that "any member of legal age in good standing for three consecutive years may run for Election to the Board of Directors. (The word consecutive is the change.) It also included adding the word "consecutive" to the qualification for an interim board member to be appointed to the Board.
