MESSAGE FROM OUR DELEGATE:
MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT :
We’d like to thank everyone who attended the Florida Stat Shoot, the attendance was slightly ahead of last year. Great weather and very little wind!!
We plan on making many improvements next year, including the Silver Dollar increasing the added money they contribute, and we’ll be talking at our Spring Shoot meeting about ways the FTA can help as well. We’re hoping to both improve the trophy’s and increase the prize money.
Unfortunately one of the best kept secrets is we give out money equally to both residence and non-residence, remembering approximately 2/3 of the shooters at the state shoot are non-residence. We will do a better job breaking down that information in the program next year.
We would all like to congratulate our new delegate, Tommy Harrington and the new (1st) alternate delegate Jake Jacobs. We would also like to thank Larry Grenevicki for the many years as our past Florida Delegate. I would also like to thank Joe Loitz for continuing to do the Programs and a great job on the ‘trophy’s. And last but certainly not least is Scarlett Ehlers for the fantastic job she has done for the past…..(7) years as our secretary/treasurer she will be missed.
HOPE TO SEE EVERYONE AT THE SPRING SHOOT MAY 3-5 AND please remember there will be a board meeting right after the shoot offs Sat. night. I will be nominating Denise Reynolds for the new Secretary/treasurer.
WE WILL ALSO BE HAVING A MISS AND OUT FRIDAY NITE FOR $500, AND THEN ANOTHER AT OUR FALL SHOOT AS WELL!
Ted Fortune
FTA President
