Newsletter for July 2010
Note the change on The Current Events Page in JULY & AUGUST
What’s New:
No
matches at Dundee or Albany in July. No Points match in July either.
The CCS
championships are August 7-8 at TCGC (TriCounty). That marks the end of
the points year. Trophies, etc. will be handed out after that.
Bend
will be putting on an IDPA Safety Officer course sometime in July or August,
date to be finalized. Cost will be minimal. Anyone interested should
contact
Tom Allen at 541-420-0856. This is a four hour lecture and three or
four hours of field work. According to Tom they will start late enough that
no one has to get up at o'dark thirty.
We
received this note from Norm and Shaun:
Shaun and I are going to be stepping down at the end of the year as TCGC
IPSC directors. We are looking for someone, (preferably two folks) to
replace us. The requirements are that you be a TCGC member in good standing
and you are willing to give back to the sport. The pay is zero but the
appreciation by match participants is eternal. We are willing to train the
team replacing us starting in the 4th quarter, and TCGC Board approval will
be required.
(An additional note, the TCGC directors are also members of the
Columbia-Cascade BOD.)
