Views From The Field October 2022
Deer activity here in my community has definitely picked up. Saw a photo taken yesterday morning, through the fog of a nice 7 pointer. He has plenty of girlfriends in the surrounding woods and fields also.
Our guest for the October meeting will be two gentlemen representing “Convention of States” here in Pennsylvania. If you agree that our government should be run with a balanced budget and that politicians should have “Term Limits”, this one is for you. I understand that sportsmen and ladies, are very supportive of their efforts at gun shows. Come on out and lets hear what they have to say.
Elections are coming and time for nominations from the floor. If nominating someone, please be sure that they have previously approved their name being put forward.
Garry has thrown his hat, so to speak into the ring for the president's position. The members will be making their choice in December, for the coming year.
See you October 4th at your meeting,
