Creekside Fencing has completed the Shooting Ranges fencing and gates. The final security work will be completed by Secure Devices, LLC within the next few weeks. Some additional work will be done by CVCC members to better secure the swinging drive-thru gates and prepare the walk-thru gate for installation of the proximity reader hardware.

A very nice 8 point buck and a large doe were taken by our two handicap hunter guests during the 9 day Handicap Hunter Deer Hunt Oct. 6 – 14. Congratulations to both! Check out the buck picture in the Photo Gallery.

On the weekend of April 21 and 22 the CVCC was featured on Dave Carlson’s "Northland Adventures" TV program.  A slightly different version of Lindsey Hayes’ report was shown.

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.
