Fall work day

WPGC Members,

 
Saturday September 30 will be our annual Fall work day at the range. We will be refacing and repairing our target stands, cleaning out holes to put the target stands in, drilling holes for electrical wires and insulating in the storage shed. Tools that may be helpful are battery operated drills and screw drivers, staple gun, pruners, rake, and leaf blowers. 
We will start at 8:00 and work as long as we need to. You do not have to stay the whole time. Even just an hour or two will be helpful. 
 
Thank you,
Gary L. Graves 
President WPGC 

Range open to all members this Saturday 9/23

Hi All,

Due to the expected rain on Saturday, the Cowboy Action Match has been cancelled and the range will be open for general usage all day.

I hope everyone has a great weekend and always remember “keep your powder dry”

Thank you,

Regards,

Clark Faulconer

Mattaponi Sundowners: Shoot For A Cure

ATTENTION ALL COWBOYS AND COWGIRLS,
 
The Mattaponi Sundowners are making preparations for the annual American Cancer Society benefit match. This year the match will be held on Sunday October 15. This will be the Pat Graves (Sassy Shooting Sours) Memorial Shoot for a Cure Match. There is no application, but I am asking everyone to pre-register for this match. The West Point Gun Club will donate an additional $5.00 for each shooter that pre-registers and attends the match. All that is required is for you to email me at 97graves@gmail.com or text me at (804) 241-5418 with your alias and category. You do not need to prepay. Bring your money to the match.
 
Once again Green Top is donating a $500.00 gift card for us to raffle. I am looking for volunteers to help me work a booth at the Green Top Outdoor Expo on October 7th and 8th. The goal is to sell raffle tickets and promote Cowboy Action Shooting. If you can help me out with this please let me know by email at 97graves@gmail.com or call/text me (804) 241-5418.
 
Please let me know if you have any items to donate for sale, raffle, or auction. I have a new-in-the-box Dillon 550 reloader. Prairie City Slim is donating a cap and ball pistol. Marshal P.C. Wabash has made an elephant hide trifold wallet. Mrs. P.C. Wabash a beautiful hand made quilt. Corkscrew Tom is making and donating a stool.
 
Let’s make this a special event in honor of Sassy!
 
Thank you,

Mattaponi Sundowners: Sunday Results

Howdy,

It was partly cloudy at the range today, with a nice breeze to help keep cool when the sun came out.  Some drizzle blew in during stage 5, but it blew away during stage 6.  Overall, a nice day for a Cowboy match.
 
Congratulations to Cody Maverick for winning the match, to Potter County Kid for winning the Josey Wales category, and to the six shooters who shot clean all day: Flatboat Bob, Kidd At Heart, Mac Moshannon, One Eyed Rooster, Feather, and One Eyed Jane.
 
Scores attached.
 
The Pat Graves Memorial Shoot for a Cure match will be held on October 15.  That’s only 4 weeks from today.  Watch for details coming soon.
