Our first Winter Shoot in 13 years will be held this November!

The date is November 19th, from 0800 to 1500, rain, snow, or shine.

I am totally open as to ideas on games to play, food options, etc. I’m looking to give out a memento to every participant, have a few prizes for winners of target games, and plan on using the West Side building for food and such. It’ll be open to CMP staff, BOD, and all ASC members interested in CMP. Jerry Janik will be present with his mortar training equipment and instruct inside the WS building! Of course, participants will use their own rifles and ammo so bring out anything interesting.

Sign up on the ASC website calendar so I have a better estimate on many will attend. Please call me if you’d like to bring any food or refreshments. Hopefully we can make this an annual event, just as we did in Sugar Grove.

In lieu of reenacting a battle campaign, we will honor Rich Smith that day. I know he would have appreciated it.

And again, thanks to all of you for helping to maintain such a great training program!

Amateur Radio operators and friends

ASC is thrilled to be able to host a Ham in a Day class on January 21st in the Rifle/Pistol building. If you are interested in becoming a HAM, this is the easiest way to get it done! Study and test in one day for only $20. More and more ASC members are getting hooked on the amateur radio hobby, join us and get your license in January!

The session will consist of a study portion, then the test in the afternoon. If you pass, your results will be reported to the FCC and you will receive your callsign shortly thereafter. If you are looking to get licensed, this is a great way to go! If you are already a Tech, this is a great way to upgrade. And if you are a General, you can take the test to upgrade to Extra. Note that there is no study class for the Extra upgrade, but this is a convenient way to get that Extra upgrade.

The registration link is below:

Make sure you head to the FCC website to generate an FRD if you don’t already have one. If you have a GMRS license or any level of ham radio license, you already have one. The link is here:
