Winter Events
BB Gun Shoot (kids): February 7th, 1:00 in the Clubhouse (basement). BB guns and BBs will be provided. Awards for different age groups. Only guns provided by the club will be used for safety considerations (some BB guns are too powerful for indoor use).

Gun Show
April 3rd and 4th.. If you would like to help with the gun show
(setup, take tickets, park cars, etc.), please contact Bill Sallade.
3-D Archery Shoot
The Black Forest Conservation Association Archery season kicks off on April
25th. If you would like to help with any of the shoots, please contact Ron
Vought, Archery Chairman.
Trap Shoot
The BFCA Trap season will get underway with a shoot approximately 1-1˝ hours after the April 25th Archery Shoot. We will have a shoot each Sunday there's an Archery shoot, as soon as the Archery course is torn down. Throughout the summer there will be a weeknight shoot every other Tuesday, 6:00pm until dark (or everyone's finished, whichever comes first), starting June 1st.
Silhouette Shoot
Last year was pretty much a washout, literally; we are hoping to get this
program active this year. The silhouette shoot consists of .22 cal handgun
shooting from 25, 50, 75, and 100 yards and steel silhouette targets. If you
haven’t tried this, come on out. Bring your favorite 22 handgun and brush up on
your shooting skills.
Hunter Education Course
The Hunter Ed class held at the clubhouse is tentatively scheduled for the first
weekend in June. The PGC has informed us there's likely to be an internet
portion that must be completed prior to arriving for the class. For more
information, contact Jim Thomas @ 274-xxxx
Bow Hunter Education Course
Date????. This is a nice course to take although it is not required by the state
of Pennsylvania at this time. You can use this course to qualify for other
states that require the Bow Hunter Education Course.
Conservation Camp
August 1st thru 7th (dates are subject to change at
this time).
Club Project Days
We will be having projects days throughout the year to do some much needed work
and cleanup. At the top of our priorities is putting a new roof on the clubhouse
(shingles). The rifle house also needs some work. We would like to
put in a 50 yard mound and adjust the shooting portal on the far side of the
clubhouse to accommodate it.
