REMINDER FOR MINI-PALMA

Selection for the Mini-Palma this year will be at the Atlantic Championships with captain John Marshall rounding out the roster with shooters from across the maritimes.
John also reminds everyone who may be interested in going to get their paperwork done - it may not be too late yet. This is necessary to transport firearms into the USA.

JULY 26 AND 27, 2014 - PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND RIFLE ASSOCIATION - 142nd ANNUAL PRIZE MEET - RESULTS

The Prince Edward Island Rifle Association hosted it's 142nd Annual Prize Meet at the Alexandra Range outside of Charlottetown last weekend. It was a well attended two days of shooting with 21 shooters coming from Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and, of course from Prince Edward Island. It appears that some shooters shot very well indeed and that some had a great deal of fun - some even did both! Although we don't have specifics of the weather over the two days, pictures suggest that it might have been a bit cool and that the wind may have presented a mild challenge at times.
We want to acknowledge the hard work of Chuck Bachmanek, Mitch MacLeod, Glenn Craig and other members of the PEIRA and thank them for their hospitality, the fine lunches and a well organized event.
