Andover Sportsmen's Club

The club has 24 more 12x12x18” lockers available to our members for an annual rental fee of $25. The new lockers are located at the bottom of the steps leading to the Indoor Range.

Interested parties need to pre-pay for the box rental before using it, and should contact the club treasurer (Brad) at treasurer@andoversportsmensclub.org

Phil Proto and Allan Arena from the Outdoor Rifle Range Department are pleased to announce the winners of the 3-Gunner Event that took place on the 28th of July. They had a great turnout and everyone had a great time:

First Place:  Matthew Keating
Second Place: William Sallie
Third Place: Dominic Truchon

There has been a lot of activity on the range for the last 6 months. The good news:

• The air handling system has been analyzed and design changes were implemented. This seems to have had a positive effect on the air flow. 
• Member using the range have made a great effort in keeping the area clean. Thank you.
• The limited use of bays #1 and #8 has reduced the wall damage to almost zero.
• Members have contacted me when a repair is needed. Thank you!
• There has been a great reduction of the need to redo target carriers
• Thanks to the help of John Connolly, the A/C unit was installed. Please don't touch! It is set at the low 70s.
• To date the range has sold over 4,388 paper targets, turning over $877.60 to the club's general fund

Thanks to All,
Al Croteau, Indoor Range Director

Due to the overwhelming outpouring of new members we have been able to do large projects at ASC.

Projects have included building a secondary trap range that we are still in the process of completing. We are building a back stop and will be installing loom and grass seed. We have also installed new lighting on the secondary trap range for night time shooting.

A new wall between the archery range and the secondary trap range has been installed.

Plans have also been made to install a new indoor archery range, to be started in October of 2018.

We had a spring clean up that went over all very well and it was well attended by the membership

Other smaller projects have been going on throughout the year to keep the club in current shape. Keeping up with the large demands of ASC members.

Anyone willing to help should contact Mike Pierce at facilities.asc@gmail.com.

Hope to see you all at the club.

Yours Truly
Mike Pierce, Facilities Director

Please note that due to the July 4th holiday, regular Wednesday trap will be moved to Tuesday, July 3rd.
