We’ve been blessed with a number of new shooters over the last few months. We are glad to have them at Thunder River Renegades! New shooters are the lifeblood of any club. Do you remember when YOU were a new shooter? You might have felt nervous, like you had a million things to remember before, during, and after a stage.
I want to thank all of my fellow cowboys and cowgirls, who inquired into my health and wished me well, that I’m still alive and mostly well from my surgery.
We often talk about the “Spirit of the Game” and the “Cowboy Way”, and both these make Cowboy Action Shooting special, and so much more than just a sport. But the Spirit of Volunteering is what keeps clubs running, and I’ve always been impressed by the many selfless cowboys and cowgirls who keep Thunder River Renegades working smoothly by their volunteer efforts.
I am humbled and honored to serve as your newly-elected president. Think back to when you first started Cowboy Action Shooting. It might have been 3 years ago or it might have been 30. How did you learn about
the sport we all love? Chances are, someone INVITED YOU. Take some time to invite someone to come shoot with us. Encourage them to participate, not just observe!
As you all know Shotglass and I have had an interesting turn of events. I am pleased to report she does not have multiple myeloma cancer. She does have non-caseating granulomas and unfortunately skin cancer. We are continuing to work through our new challenges in life and are grateful for your prayers and the many blessings we have had
