Board Minutes:
Meeting Held at the Mills River Restaurant on July 9 at 6:00 p.m.
In attendance were:
Phil Fack, Penny Gilliam, Tyrone Phillips, John Mitchell, Mark Nash, Larry Ohl, Terry Sealey, Joe and Annette Potts, Bob Huskey, George Blazier, David Gardner, Jeff Dunlap, Karen O'Kelley, Anthony Felip. 
Issues discussed were:
Trooper Blanton donation.  It was agreed that we would donate our August Lake Lure Match proceeds to the fund for Trooper Blanton.  Later determined that September would be a better month.  That would give us more time to promote the idea and a few of our key shooters would be out of town.  THE TROOPER BLANTON DONATION WILL BE FROM THE PROCEEDS OF OUR SEPTEMBER LAKE LURE MATCH.  Shoot fees will remian $10.00 for members, $15.00 for non-members.  There will be no free shooters for September.  Any extra donations will be greatly accepted.  Word is already out on the Ruger forum.
I will be negotiating with MGM Targets for some new toys later this week.  We will be buying some new steel poppers and such as dictated by our meeting.
We will be adding 2 additional Women On Target Clinics to next years schedule.  These clinics will most likely be in May and October.  The additional clinics will be an advanced level of training and will be held at the Lake Lure range.  Curriculum and shooting program is being developed.  Those that are involved with instructing please begin thinking about which clinics you would prefer to work on.  I don't want to burn anyone out so those that are involved decide which you prefer to work on (intro or advanced)
It was requested that I look into setting up another Instructor Certification Class.  I will have answers on that soon.  Any one interested shoot me an email so I can get a count.
