Material Needed
A proposal was accepted by the members at the June 6, 2024 General Members meeting to install carport covers for the 50 yard range. This is being done to provide protection from the sun so as to expand the use of the range.
The carports are anchored using concrete pier blocks that have the raised steel bracket. If any member has any unused blocks they would like to donate, please contact me.

Introduction to Bullseye
TCMSA now has scheduled Bullseye Pistol matches. They are currently shooting the .22 LR portion on a weekly schedule. On Saturday, May 25,2024, they will be holding an intro to Bullseye, at no cost, for members to see what it is all about.
Members involved in this discipline will be at the range from 0900 to 1100 to demonstrate the course of fire and provide .22LR pistols to try out. If you have any .22LR pistol such as Ruger semi autos, Browning Buckmark, S&W autos or any other, bring them with you.
This is a great opportunity to get involved with a group that is more than willing to help new shooters.
