to fellow HWWA members;

 

great day, guys. Out in the woods with 24 youth excited about spruce tree seeds on the snow, checking out coyote & rabbit tracks, asking questions, putting up shelters, building fires, cooking hot dogs, etc, etc.

 

one young guy said, as they were packing up to get back on the bus - this was the best field trip ever. Ive never built my own fire before and never cooked food over a fire. When I get home Im going to ask Dad to take me out this weekend to our woodlot.......

 

Now, thats a LARGE day!!

Sounds like a great day Gary, well done!

Yes we get to do the same thing again next Wed. I believe that is the plan besides I got to keep up with my reputation as being the Hotdog King of Hants Co, now to be a stick in the mud. Had to cancel the Stanley Range Shoot for this Saturday weather problems, I really want to give our new trap machine a work out but I guess that will have to wait  for a while.

Well the HWWA is again hosting a club open to the public shooting day in Stanley on the 26 of July 9;00am to 4;00pm. BBQ lunch coffee tea water all free. There will be lots of skeet shooting and 22 target shooting all free. No Woods and water weekend so were having this instead.Will be following Covic rules there also

Last Sun the HWWA had it's first range day in Stanley. The rain held off .The am to 11 was shooting the balloons with a mix of calibers 44/40, 35 rem, 7.62 and the younger group also used 22cal.After that we started the Skeet with 410,20g, 12g and this went on most of the afternoon with the occasional rifle try outs. At lunch we had Sheppard Wild pie. Pheasant soup followed with venison Mild Italian sausages. and burgers. What a feed for 20 persons. some great eats. My brother came up from Bedford and stayed for 5hrs till he went home to celebrate the rest of his Birthday. He told me the invite was a great birthday present. He had a great time even though his shoulder was sore from what I call recoil sickness..
