StoneyMike Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 We of the Rock River Regulators of Beloit, WI hold a nice lunch after the match. We've been doing it since we started and have a decent menu of things we do. We usually have between 35-50 shooters twice a month, and maybe half stay for the food. This changes with the weather but seems pretty consistent over the years. People hang out after the food is over for quite some time socializing.

Warden Callaway Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 I think range location has something to do with the amount of get together after a match. Our club is in a farm county location where no gathering place is on any common route home. Many of our shooters travel two hours or more from all directions. It's not real likely any are going to want to go 30 minutes in the wrong direction to meet up. The club house has a kitchen and when it's cold, someone puts on a pot of coffee. Often someone or two bring some cookies or other baked finger food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we have fun. Imis We aught to advertise that more...I've been a member for a bit over a year now and the announcement before the last monthly was the first I heard of that. By then I had commitments at home to go to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possum Skinner, SASS#60697 Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Most of our shooters at Orange County Regulators have always gone out to eat after the match. Same as at Up the Creek Gang in Lake Charles. I like the idea of having food at the range (and we've had pot luck here and there) better, but somebody has to cook.

Warden Callaway Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 This topic brings to mind a story about one of my best friends at the office years ago. He and his wife has become "born again Christians". They attended and were active in church. Come Monday morning, his big weekend activity report as all about the all you can eat buffet restaurant he, wife and congregation eat at after services. I wonder if he got more out of the buffet than the church services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tennessee williams Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Usually after everyone gets through making fun of me, we go to the old country store what's been turned into a restaurant. That's where we get a seperate table for Imis' hat, folks excusify, and I try to explain a new transition I did at the match in a way that doesn't let folks know it was an accident.

There's way too much truth in that statement. I expect better out of the reigning Tennessee State Champion Liar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
