TRAP RANGE
Last Updated on March 04, 2010

Although the range has been kept open as much as possible the
long stretch of bad weather has minimized our regular Wednesday evening and Sunday morning
sessions. Let us hope for better more favorable cooperation from Mother Nature in
March
That being said, the Holiday Cup scheduled to be held on Sunday, March 28 has been postponed until Sunday, April
25, due to my being required to have eye surgery on March 26 and therefore unable to organize and manage the event on Sunday,
March 28.

HOLIDAY CUP
This will be a one day event that was held in December in previous years but due to the pervasive problem of bad weather I am moving to the spring in 2010. The “Holiday” interpretation will be a celebration of those Holidays that suggest the end of winter and the beginning of spring such as; Easter, May Day, Mother’s Day, etc.
This will be a one day event open to members, their spouses and children between the ages of 15 and 21 living at home that regularly support the club’s trap activities.
It will be Sunday, April 25th, from 9:00 am until noon.
Prizes will be free rounds of trap good for one year and trophies. There will include 3-4 different events plus a raffle type participation offering cash prizes.
CLUB TRAP CHAMPIONSHIP

ASC 2009 ANNUAL MEMBERS TRAP CHAMPIONSHIP
2008 TRAPSHOOTING CHAMPIONSHIP
We hope that anyone interested in Trap Shooting, or the sport of shooting in
general, will consider participating next year in that which has become an
annual Club Championship Series.
Although a "championship" is involved the true emphasis is not on competing but
on camaraderie and simply having a great time. The event is organized in a
manner that provides an equal opportunity to win prizes to both accomplished
"trappers" and those that have never tried the sport. Prizes include the
winner’s name being placed on a permanent plaque in the club house wall plus
individual trophies and free trap rounds.
We are delighted that participants now include ladies, children and families and
we hope that trend will continue. The event is organized in a manner that
creates continuing interest throughout the summer months ending with a "Finals
Day" in September. Every person that participates will not only enjoy. The
summer preliminaries but will also have an opportunity to win prizes on the
Finals Day, regardless of their level of experience.
The 2008 event had 27 participants which was up from 22 in 2007 and 15 in 2006.
We sincerely hope this trend will continue and that more ASC members will look
upon this event as an opportunity to enjoy one of our club’s excellent
facilities.
The results of the 2008 Championship series were:
CHAMPIONSHIP FLIGHT

In order to help us get through the cold winter months we will soon commence the
second annual HOLIDAY CUP, a companion event to the annual summer Club
Championship Series. We again encourage all members that have an interest in
simply having a good time to join us. If you need anything including equipment,
instructions, etc please see Al Croteau or Al Desroche and they will be
delighted to assist you. The only restrictions are that children under 12 years

The range is open to the public every Sunday morning from 9 till 12 noon and on Wednesday nights from 5 PM till 9 PM. If you want to learn about trap come on down anytime the range is open. One of the range officer will be more than happy to help you. If you wish to be emailed any information regarding trap, email Al at N733yz1@yahoo.com and he will send out information as he gets it.
The new nets were installed on the range, NO SHOT larger than 7 1/2 and no powder charges larger than 3 drams are allowed on the range. See Al if you have any questions on larger shots. Any damage to the nets by someone violating this rule. That person will be responsible for the cost of repair.
There is a new target frame on the outdoor range for patterning your shotgun with any shot larger than 7 1/2. Make sure you read the instruction sheet posted on the outdoor range for the use of this target. It is located on the left side of the range in front of the 50 yard berm.
