FOLKS,
SORRY WE HAVE BEEN OUT OF CONTACT WITH YOU. CHRIS RICHARDS WHO HAS BEEN
WRITING OUR NEWSLETTER AND HIS WIFE, TANYA, WERE IN A HORRIBLE CAR ACCIDENT
LATE THIS SUMMER. THEY HAVE BEEN BUSY TAKING CARE
OF THEMSELVES AND SHOULDN’T BE BURDENED WITH OUR NEWSLETTER. OUR
BEST WISHES GO OUT TO CHRIS AND TANYA, AND WE HOPE FOR A FULL RECOVERY!
MEANWHILE,
I’LL DO MY BEST TO BRING YOU UP TO DATE. WE ARE ALMOST DONE WITH OUR
BUILDING. THE FINAL TOUCHES ARE YET TO BE COMPLETED ON THE “COOK-SHACK”.
AND WE ARE PRESENTLY LOOKING TO INSTALL A WOOD STOVE FOR FIRES TO HEAT YOU.
THE
HUNTING SEASON SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN VERY REWARDING FOR MANY OF OUR MEMBERS
THIS YEAR. THAT’S GREAT. WE WILL GET A FORM OUT TO YOU FOR THE HUNT AWARDS
IN THE NEXT NEWSLETTER. THIS ONE IS GOING TO BE PRETTY SHORT.
WE
HAD A MEETING AT MY HOUSE ON
DECEMBER 1st AND WE HAD GREAT ATTENDANCE BY THE EXISTING BOARD MEMBERS. WE
HAVE OPENED NOMINATIONS FOR OFFICERS FOR 2006. WE WILL HOLD A MEETING
AT THE RANGE ON THE FIRST THURSDAY OF JANUARY AT 7:00 PM. WE WILL BE
ELECTING OFFICERS AT THAT MEETING. SO FAR HERE ARE YOUR NOMINEES:

WE
LEARNED A LESSON WHILE GOING THROUGH THE CONSTRUCTION OF OUR NEW BUILDING.
WE FOUND WE COULD HIRE LABORERS TO ASSIST US IN OUR WORK. WE WILL BE
CONTINUING THAT THIS YEAR. I’D LIKE TO SEE THE MEMBERS DO THE FUN WORK AND
LET OUR “HIRED HANDS” DO THE TOUGH STUFF. ANY OFFICER THAT COMES ON
BOARD THIS NEXT YEAR WILL HAVE THAT ADVANTAGE TO WORK WITH.
THERE
IS ONE IMPORTANT ACTIVITY THAT STARTS OUR NEW YEAR. THAT IS THE SPORTSMAN
SHOW SHOOTING BOOTH. WE ARE LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS TO ASSIST IN RUNNING THE
BOOTH AGAIN THIS YEAR. PLEASE CONTACT AL HANSCHAR AT 503-657-7224 TO ADD
YOUR NAME TO THE LIST OF VOLUNTEERS. IT’S A GREAT FUNDRAISER FOR THE CLUB,
AND IT’S A GOOD INDOOR ACTIVITY DURING THE WINTER WEATHER. PLEASE CALL HIM
AND OFFER TO HELP OUT. IT’S EASY, IT’S FUN IT’S YOUR CLUB!
FINALLY;
WE ARE LOOKING FOR TWO PERSONS TO BECOME
TRUSTEES FOR THE CLUB. BOTH CLIFF HOFF AND BECKY JACKSON ‘S TERMS EXPIRE
THIS YEAR. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, COME TO THE NEXT MEETING MAKE THAT KNOWN,
AND HAVE A “RESUME” READY TO BE PUBLISHED IN THE NEWSLETTER. OF COURSE, CLIFF AND BECKY WILL CONTINUE IF SUITABLE
REPLACEMENTS ARE NOT FOUND.
PLEASE
NOTE : ALL MEETINGS WILL BE THE FIRST THURSDAY OF EACH MONTH AT 7:00 PM,
AT THE SYLVAN RANGE!!!!!!!!
ALLEN
F. STOVER
PRESIDENT, SYLVAN ARCHERS INC.
