Your Invited: Sacramento Valley Field Target Match - Sunday May 15th Ione CA
Come on out and join us for a fun field target match at the Sacramento Valley Shooting Center. We will set up a challenging but fun course to give you a chance to test your progress in shooting Field Target. Temperatures are forecast to be in the low 80's, with the ever present Ione winds, so it should be a comfortable day for shooting.
I will be in southern CA shooting the Temecula Challenge match so ScottS will be running the match and would appreciate any help you can give him.

We had a great day at the range! Everyone was helpful and the atmosphere was mellow.
I have a favor to ask of the participants though... I got back and realized I didn't take ANY pictures of the event!
Would you guys and gals mind posting pictures of the event, especially any pictures with my son, Mark.
Thanks,
Rob
