Ron's Photo Albums
As our club has just passed its 25th anniversary, I have been looking for some old pictures to put on the site, as I thought it would be interesting for new members.
Ron very kindly stepped up to the challange and let me pilfer his photo albums.
I have added a new gallery in the photo's section called Vintage, with a selection of his pictures over the years.
You can now of course discuss them in the new Forum !
If anybody has any others I can add, please let me know.
New To 2010, we have a club gun on offer to visitors wishing to try the sport out. This is strictly by appointment only, so if you would like to take up this offer please email in advance.

Ron & Anne Crawford's Charity Walk.
We are all very proud of the stunning achievement Ron & Anne done completing 630 miles of coastland walk for charity.
(Story can be read here)
We are proud to publish this thank you from them.
As promised our thank you message.
Well we have at last completed the 630 mile walk of the South West Coast Path and obtained our certificate.
Anne and I found it quite unrelenting but also very rewarding with the fantastic scenery and very interesting people we met along the way.
Although we got home July 18th, we set off a week later to Dorset to walk 20 miles we had missed due to Anne having a fall and missing the opening times of the Army Ranges (weekends only).
Now to the important point. Thanks to your so generous donation we have raised the fantastic amount of GBP 2730 for the Cancer Research Campaign.
Thank you so much for your support.
Best Regards
Anne and Ron Crawford

Thank you to everybody that attended, it was great to see such a good turn out and support for Ted`s family in this important event to us.
The weather was kind again, and a testing 40 shot course put out. The idea of awarding prizes to grades this year seemed to work well, as I hope everybody will agree.
Thank you to Gerry for cooking the BBQ again for everybody.
The most important thank you must go to Teds family for taking the time to come and support the event, and to his wife for doing the prize giving.
