Hopefully we will have COOLER weather for this event than we had at THE SOUTHERN SXS.
Dottie, the BRSC cook, will have breakfast sandwiches ready for us at 7:30 a.m. on Saturday morning the 16th of May 2009 at the gun club.
Dottie will have lunch ready at noon for all of the shooters and guest.
Chuck is planning a dinner after the shooting at a restaurant close by Blue Ridge Sporting Clays.
Good Shooting To You All, Jent

Update 4/30/09
Our central meeting place will be the 5 Stand Pavilion (blue building) located on your left about half way down the driveway to the main clubhouse. There are plenty of picnic tables under roof and lots of parking. From there you can find squad mates and go out and shoot the courses.
1. Prices for non-members at Blue Ridge are $11.00 for 50 targets on the Sporting Clays Course, and $5.00 per 25 targets on the 5 Stand and Pyramid Wobble Trap.
2. To sign up to shoot the Sporting Clays course, you register and pay at the Main Clubhouse. For 5 Stand and Pyramid Wobble Trap, you sign up and pay right at the 5 Stand and Wobble Trap location.
3. There will be a sign in sheet located at the 5 Stand Pavilion. Please sign in when you arrive. This is just so I can keep track of all who attend.
4. There is a small kitchen located in the main clubhouse available for breakfast and lunch.
5. For those who want something to eat before driving home, let’s meet at . Arooga's Grille House & Sports Bar - Route 22 location:
7025 Allentown Blvd.
Harrisburg, PA 17112
717-920-WING (9464) http://www.aroogas.com/index.html Easy to find but I will have directions available at the pavilion.

Chuck,
Thanks for the "leg-work" in arranging the shoot. It was a great shoot, with an even better group of shooters! I hope you continue to host it annually.

My thanks to all who attended the Central Pa SxS shoot held this past Saturday at the Blue Ridge Sportsman’s Club in suburban Harrisburg Pa. I believe everyone had a good time, got to see old friends and made some new ones. I know I did.
The weather started out damp and dreary with a fine mist up until about 9:00am. From then until about noontime, it was really overcast with a short shower around 12:30. The afternoon got brighter and the sun came out along with a pick up in the wind.
My sign up sheet indicates 35 shooters from PA, NJ, MD, and VA. I’m sure there were quite a few shooters who didn’t sign my sheet so I’d estimate a total of 40 or more total shooters. Guns recorded were Parker, Fox, Iver Johnson, Baker, Lefever, Beretta, Winchester, LC Smith, Browning, CZ, SKB, Craig Libhart shooting a LePage (some kind of French gun), and Dewey Vicknair isn’t sure what he’s shooting because he put a ? down for the gun type. A shame that a gunsmith can’t identify his gun!
Ed Clapper (Average Ed) was there. He writes a column every month for Shotgun Sports Magazine and he's planning on writing an article for the magazine about our shoot and shooting vintage guns in a future column. He was at our first shoot and planned on writing about it but his editor wanted him to concentrate on trapshooting. Hopefully it will be a different result this time. I'll keep everyone posted if it's published.
I’ll post a link to Photobucket when I get all the pictures uploaded and identified.
Maybe we’ll do this again in early September if a date can be worked out.

Wow, Chuck - that first photo is a mind-blower! I had no idea J.D. Shank had an identical twin brother!! That must be him in the burnt-orange glasses!!!
Sorry I did not get to attend, but I got recruited for a very worthy cause at the last minute - a shoot sponsored by the Fairfax VA Hunt to raise funds for the aftermath of their catastrophic fire last winter wherein they lost several horses and quite a number of their foxhounds.
John Swindle, Tom Holland, myself, Godfrey Kauffman and Daryl McKinney made up a squad of side-by-side shooters to hold up the tradition It was held at Prospect Hall in WVa, where the VA Vintagers hold many of their events. Our weather held about like yours did and we lucked out and never got rained on!. Hopefully we can make it next year.
