Firearm Enthusiasts Bocce Ball Interest Group Interest is steadily increasing as new players try this game, even in the extreme heat of summer. Because of this heat we've had to adjust our playing hours and sometimes cancel play. Our application for club status was voted on July 11th. The outcome of this vote is unknown as of this writing. I'm confident it will be approved. Once again we are inviting anyone interested to try the game. If you have questions please contact Bob Cooper at (951) 769-6532 or Janet Burns at (951) 922-3013. ~ Bob Cooper 4x4 Seasons The 4 x 4 Seasons Off Road Club has been very quiet this month. A number of members have been away on vacation. Plus, the summer heat is not conducive to off roading. And with the dry heat, areas with a lot of vegetation are fire hazard areas best left without off-road vehicles disturbing their habitat. No trips are planned until the fall. However we are still looking for new members with fresh ideas. Please join us Aug. 13, at 7 pm in the Ballroom. For more information, contact Rick Brower, jamiebbad@aol.com; George Johnson, gjohnson23@dc.rr.com; Ann Williams, wilymz@ att.net. ~ Ann Williams Six members and one guest made a trip to the High Desert Rod & Gun Club shooting range in July. We made it an early day in order to beat the heat. The weather was very good and the group was the first to arrive. They had their pick of the lanes and after the RSO (range safety officer) gave the instructions, the shooters were allowed to place their targets, take position and proceed with the shooting exercise. We're looking forward to the next trip. Firearm ownership is a very responsible process of training, safety and familiarity with your firearms. Take the opportunity to practice at least once a month to maintain your skill level and familiarity with your firearms. Remember to save your targets if you want an evaluation. If you need a shooting partner, check on the roster and make a call. This is a good way to meet your fellow enthusiasts. Meetings are the first Friday of the month at 4 pm in Lodge Ballroom.

Reminder: No firearms allowed on the Lodge premises. ~ Ron Morgan Horseshoes for Fun Calling all horseshoe players. We have started a Horseshoes for Fun Club, which will be meeting at the horseshoe pits every Wednesday at 3:30 pm. We will be playing until approximately 4:30 pm. No need to bring horseshoes. We have two sets at The Lodge and one set purchased by a private party. This is a great way to make new friends and get a little exercise in the fresh air.
