On 10/18/25, Ranger Bill and a number of TRR volunteers held a workday to make several necessary repairs to the range in advance of LSTR 2026. Your VP Ranger Bill did this on an accelerated schedule, knowing he was going to be unavailable due to a surgery from which he is currently convalescing.
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.
