2001 schedule

".22 Fun Silhouette Shoots" were held (one per month) in April, May and June.

The events were very well received and successful.

Although the shoots did not generate a huge profit, that was not the purpose.

The goal was to provide an alternative event for the members and the public

and "test the waters" for future events.

Everyone who participated seemed to have fun and we are tentatively planning of having similar events this fall.

WE WANT TO DO MORE OF THESE TYPE OF EVENTS BUT WE DO NEED MORE VOLUNTEER HELP!!

The 3rd annual Youth Outdoor SportsFest was held on Saturday, July 15, 2000

at the Lake Edinboro club grounds. The Springs Rod & Gun and Lake Edinboro Sportsman's Clubs

once again co-hosted this event. More than 70 area boys and girls participated in several events

including archery, muzzleloading rifle, air rifle biathlon, trap shooting, fly fishing

along with demonstrations on ammunition handloading, trapping, K-9 police units, safe boating,

fly-tying and SCUBA diving. The Clubs donated a 18-speed mountain bicycle which was awarded to ___.

The NW PA Chapter of Trout Unlimited presented a custom fly-fishing rod/reel/fly outfit to ___.

Many thanks to all who participated. If you weren't there, you missed a good time!
