The organizers of the 2014 Oilmen’s Trap shoot would like to thank Northern Metalic for their generous sponsorship of the Browning 725 Over/Under shotgun as our major door prize, as well as Dave Jeffers and the CCT group for putting on the Saturday Dinner.Also Ace Instruments has been a generous sponsor for many years as our Hat Sponsor and they always have something to contribute to the card raffles.

Lynette Kitt with Unforgettable Memories and Sam Warren with St. John Advertising both did amazing jobs with the administration and scoring, making the chairman’s job a lot easier.

Tammi Drapeau and her crew of volunteers lead two full classes of 25 children through the basics of fishing. The windy conditions made casting a challenge, but the kids, volunteers and parents looked pleased with the event. The North Peace Rod and Gun Club provided each child with a rod, real, and some fishing accessories that they took home with them.

You can read more about the event on Energetic City’s website.

35 shooters overcame the torrential rains of Saturday and the sunny, but windy conditions of Sunday during the 2nd annual Sporting Clays Shoot at the North Peace Rod and Gun Club. Of the 35 shooters, 27 were men, 2 were women and 6 were juniors, with the youngest shooter being 11 years old and the oldest in his mid seventies. Kudos to the Sporting Clays Committee’s chairs Jesper Amstrup and John Fisher for all their hard work to make this a successful event.
