Historic

On Saturday, Apr. 21st the large soft maple tree was removed from the yard of the rental house.  A professional tree trimmer was hired to cut the tree.  The parts were then removed from the yard to the parking lot using the CVCC Kobuta where most of the sections were cut into firewood and the limbs piled.  Check out the pictures added to the Photo Gallery.  The tree was hollow at the base and would not have withstood too much of a storm without falling on the house. 

At the April membership meeting long time member Gordon Ostrum made a donation of $100 to the Shooting Ranges Improvement Fund CD.  Past President Kevin King got to thinking and came up with the idea of starting a CVCC Member Fund Raising Challenge to match Gordon's $100 donation.  At the May membership meeting Kevin issued this challenge to all CVCC members.  The Board and the members of the Shooting Ranges Improvement Committee strongly support this effort. 

The Shooting Ranges Improvement Committee presented their "Concept Plan" for shooting range improvements at the January 27, 2011 membership meeting.  The overall goal of the committee is to improve our shooting ranges for now and the future.  The CVCC already has one of the best 3D archery ranges in this area and the committee feels we should also have one of the best firearms ranges as well. 

We are happy to announce that we will be hosting our 14th annual Handicapped/Disabled Person Deer Hunt at the Club Grounds from October 3 - 11, 2009.

A group of dedicated members were on hand on Saturday, June 6th to pour a concrete floor around the Chicken Pit.  This project adds the finishing touch to our Chicken Grilling area which is used for our annual Chicken Q in Ausust as well as a host of other events. 

Here are a couple videos from the CVCC Archives for you to enjoy.

The Coon Valley Conservation Club every year offers to sponsor a minimum of two 7th grade students to attend the CWES Summer Camp out of our Education Fund.
