Best Shoot Yet!

Thanks to all the participants who came out to Kelowna’s Central Okanagan Shotgun Sports Club for one of our best attended shoots yet. New members, novices and veterans all survived the chilly weather for some great fun. Thanks very much for your support. Our next shoot will be November 22 and it will probably be warmer. In the meantime we are open every Saturday and Sunday from 10 o’clock.

Lisa Cunningham of Comox has a great year!

Congratulations to Lisa Cunningham who has had an incredible skeet season. Lisa is well known to valley competitors as she regularly takes part in our Central Okanagan Tournaments.

I found this article on the Comox Valley Record.

Clubhouse and Sporting Clays-lots going on at Central Okanagan Shotgun Sports Club

With some long days put in by our volunteers we will have the roof finished by next weekend, trusses, sheathing and ProLock roofing installed.

Work has begun on a road into the sporting clays field. This should be our project for next spring.

We also spent some time last week clearing out a section of the trout pond and we’re looking into introducing some rainbow trout.

  • Club Presidnet Bob LaRue preparing roadway for the new sporting clay site
  • Section of new sporting clays site
  • New roadway to northeaster corner of property
  • Clubhouse as of August 23.
  • Cleaning out the pond.

Clubhouse Progress

This weekend we managed to get all of our roof trusses in place. Next comes the sheathing and finally the roof. Big thanks to all the volunteers who have helped us get to this point. The building should be ready by the time the snow falls. If you’d like to make a donation to the building fund ( we need to pay for the roofing) please contact Pat Bare at 250 768 3301
