Wow! All of a sudden, we get 2-3 volunteers out lately to assist. Also, our latest attendance has been 11-16 shooters. We try to mention to new attendees the varied programs we have at AFGC, but it would be great if we had a pamphlet with contact numbers to hand out that they could [...]
Please note that 22 Club Night will be cancelled on Monday, October 31, for Halloween. Thanks!
Still looking for some additional volunteers to assist. We could like to spend more time encouraging and training, however, when we have only one volunteer, we must concentrate on overall safety. We picked up a quantity of .22 ammo from Cabela’s on special. I just got an email today about .22 LR ammo specials in [...]
We had an awesome time with the shooters at the open house. Started with 4 positions, then had to go to 5 positions. By ammo count, we had about 280+ shooters, varying in age from around 6 to over 60. I would like to thank our volunteers: Dave, Tim, J-P, Pieter, Curt and those that [...]

We are looking for more assistance with the .22 Rifle Club. Pieter was just notified he now has to work Monday evenings for the next few months. Had to cancel last Monday as neither Pieter nor I were available. We are also planning a special Monday evening sometime in June. There will be goodies and [...]
A great big thanks to Dave and Linda Dunn. Linda washed all of our shooting matts (they were beyond filthy) and Dave made some more prone wood supports. Also, a big thanks to Peter who ran things when I was off sick. We have purchased some Savage Rascal Target Rifles in left hand. These are [...]
Please note that the 22 Club is cancelled on Monday, March 28th, due to the Easter holiday weekend. Thanks!
It has been an awesome year, with many families bringing out three to four youth to join in our Monday evening shoots. We have been joined by many community youth groups throughout the year, either working towards badges or just part of their program. Our largest attendance was from a local church youth group where [...]
We have a preliminary budget approval for purchases of additional 22 left handed rifles that can be used by the 22 Club. However, after contacting many suppliers and doing research in depth, YUCK! Talking with Peter at Rusty Woods in Mission, if we re-sight a rifle that is not made to accept peep sights, it [...]
The .22 Club would like to request budgetary funding for the purchase of four .22 caliber left landed target rifles for next year. These would be used by both right and left handed shooters, who have a dominant left eye. It appears from internet searches that we will have to buy the rifles, then have [...]
In November, we had the Aboriginal Sport, Recreation and Physical Activities Partners Council join us for a Monday evening shoot. This group joins us at least once a year, and will be again with us this month. We had 13 attendees from their group. The .22 Club would like to request budgetary funding for the [...]
