DECEMBER 6, 2008
We had another beautiful day for
shooting. It was a little brisk in the morning but warmed during the
morning. The wind as usual for Palo
Alto was interesting all day, but not overpowering.
Rob Westfall was Prone Match Winner with a
nice score of 590-21x, and Don Geraci was the F-Class Match Winner with his
score of 592-30x. Shawn Sanford took top honors in the F-TR class with
558-8x. Shawn was shooting his .308 tactical rifle. On the prone
side, Buck Kliebert took top honors in the combined Master/Expert class with a
nice 585-19x with his Palma
rifle. George Fournet was top=2
0gun in the combined Sharpshooter/Marksman
class with 508-7x. George was shooting his trusty M-1a rifle.

Next match will be January 3rd,
2009, followed by a February 7th match. Both will be
non-sanctioned matches at reduced fees (scores will not be sent to NRA).
We hope to see you there.
In the meantime, we would like to express
our thanks for your support throughout the year 2008. Although we lost three
matches to weather and hurricanes, we still had a very successful year. We saw many new shooters and we saw our ‘regulars’ get better and
better. Thanks to the foresight and prudence of our club’s leaders
past and present, as well as the tremendous support of our volunteers, we are
back even better than before the storm. Our new covers and clubhouse are
our pride and joy. We look forward to hosting you in them in our future
events.

events in the New Year.
Please accept our warmest good wishes for you
and your families during this beautiful holiday season. Please be safe
and join us in the New Year!!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!
Lanny & Gary
