I was planning on attending Saturday. For me it's a 2 1/2 hr ride up from Plymouth, Mass. Add rain to it from Mass all the way up and back and while in Barrington just is not my cup of tea. Maybe an alternative date could be arranged. I was looking forward to drooling over all the nice Parkers our members would surely bring up. But not in the rain.

I'm of the same mind Allen, especially when we can't gather inside because of COV restrictions. If I hadn't made the commitment to bring venison stew (which I have not started yet) I would simply opt out of it. But I'll wait for Pete to let us know if it's still on. Heck, I don't mind shooting in the snow but not rain...

Right now the forecast is predicting 60% chance of rain at a max temperature of 48 degrees in the warmest part of the day.

Right now I see showers all day long so not the best conditions for a get together and shoot. I'll make a call tomorrow morning based on the forecast at that time. Should we need to cancel due to weather (I am not fond of shooting in the rain or getting old doubles soaked myself) we could reschedule the shoot/get together for MLK Day on Monday 1/17 and we would have the club to ourselves. Thoughts?

January 17 (MLK Day) would suit me just fine!... weather permitting :whistle:

Jan 17 would work for me too.

I will be out west somewhere attending our annual New Years Day annual flyer shoot.
I'll raise a glass in your direction later that day.

Given the forecast of rain showers starting at 7AM and rain starting at 11AM and through most of the daylight hours it is best to cancel the NYD shoot. We can reschedule for Monday 1/17, which is also a holiday and we will have the club to ourselves.

Dean Romig 12-31-2021 06:26 AM

Thanks Pete. I’ll see you all on January 17.

See you Jan 17
