Cowboy Action

Howdy All,

Well, what a day; a bit windy but for November, not bad.  There were several regular shooters absent today and we missed y’all.  We had a new shooter from Texas via Quantico, Big Iron Patnode and a prospective new shooter “ No Name Yet”; WELCOME to Mattaponi Sundowners and we hope to see y’all again soon.

Congrats to Big Iron Patnode for being the top shooter today and to Big Iron Patnode, Flatboat Bob and Stogie for shooting CAD.  What a way to have your first match at Mattaponi!! 

We want to remind everyone that Mattaponi Sundowners will not be shooting next Saturday.  Our next match will be Sunday, December 17.  This will be our Christmas match and will be followed by dinner at Nick’s with a Chinese Gift exchange.  We hope to see y’all there.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING and safe travel to all.

Howdy All,

Just wanted to give y’all a final update on the Shoot For A Cure match.  With the Peppermill Creek Gang, Wistful selling more goods and money donated at Range Wars, our GRAND TOTAL IS $6345.  WOW!!!!!  You Cowboys and Cowgirls are AWESOME!!!!  THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR DONATIONS AND SUPPORT!!!!  They is nothing else to say, YOU ARE GREAT BEYOND BELIEF!!!

Loco Linda also wanted me to pass along a message from her.  She was sorry that she couldn’t make the match this year and wanted to say, “THANK YOU” for the cards and prayers.  She really appreciated it.  Please keep her and Ramblin Royce in your prayers and if you get a chance please send her a card.

I’m sorry that this isn’t more upbeat but I learned on my way home from Range Wars that my nephew from my first marriage died today. He was 41 and leaves behind 3 children from 19 to 7 years old.  My heart is broken.

THANK YOU, AGAIN.

Howdy All,

I just wanted to THANK YOU, each and everyone of you again; not for just coming (which was great) but for giving from the bottom of your hearts.  The “SHOOT FOR A CURE” match was a GREAT success, thanks to y’all.  We raised and donated $5620.  This may not be our bottom total because  Wistful is taking some “do rags” to the ship yard to sell.  I will send out the grand total as soon as I know it.  Y’all are so GREAT!!!  You never stop amazing me.  It really shows that so such can be done with so few.  42 shooters and that much money, even our waitress at Nick’s donated!!.

I would like to give a special THANKS to  the following people that worked so hard to help me make this a success:

Inita Shoot
Wistful McClintock
Quilla Star
Mrs. Flatboat
Arizona Ansie
Ricochet

I can’t say enough for the wonderful help that was given to me.  THANK YOU!!

Please take the time to send Loco Linda and Ramblin Royce a card and prayer. Send to: Loco Linda

WE WILL BEAT CANCER, SOONER THAN LATER, THANKS TO PEOPLE LIKE YOU ALL.

Thank you again and I hope everyone receives a blessing from this.

Howdy All,

Well, it’s time!!!!   The Shoot For A Cure, breast cancer match, will be held on Sunday, October 15.  The gates will open at 1000, safety meeting at 1145, opening ceremony at 1200 and match at 1230.  I’m not item dropping but we have several things for sale, auction and raffle; like a pistol, bullets, primers, and action jobs.  There are many other worthy items but don’t want to tell all, got to leave some surprises for Sunday.  Got your attention now?  Good!! The big announcement is that ALL money will go to an area Relay For Life team.  West Point Gun Club will not keep a penny of any money collected; in fact, they are contributing $5 for each person that will pre-register for the match and come Sunday.  I so far have 27 shooters registered.  Come on people, let me know that you are coming and then show up!!  We need you to make this match successful.

Please let me know ASAP if you haven’t all ready and if you are planning on attending.  If you know that you can’t make it but would like to donate please get a check in the mail NOW and made payable to the American Cancer Society.  I will be turning in all money at the Sunday match.

Attached are the stages for Sunday.  I think this will be a fun match.  Please bring your smiling faces and warm hearts to the match but in case you haven’t gotten it yet, WE NEED YOU TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!!

Email me that you are coming: 97graves@gmail.com

Send checks made payable to: American Cancer Society
