Ladies and Gentlemen,

Starting June 1st the club will resume a semi normal operation. We use the term semi normal because we need to follow the rules and recommendations on gatherings and social distancing. Furthermore we encourage the use of face masks. The health and safety of each member is our main goal. In addition, the last thing we need is for the club to be mentioned in the newspapers as the source of an outbreak of Covid 19

 ————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————–

At the Indoor Range we will put 5 shooters on the line per relay and thus achieve sufficient distance. We will rotate shooters on/off the line till everybody has had the opportunity to shoot. For the Outdoor Range the match directors have already revised, or will revise in the near future, the format to provide the safest environment while observing social distancing. If you have questions please contact the match director for the event you plan to attend.

For the Executive Committee,

Ron Bekebrede

Secretary.
