Merv Perra shoots 150,000th at Old Skagit

The weekend of June 20 and 21, witnessed two milestone events.  The first was Merv Perra shooting his 150,000th registered target during the Sunday Handicap.  Merv was congratulated by all in attendance for achieving this and received a pin from PITA as well as a belt buckle from Vancouver Gun Club and a jacket from Old Skagit Gun Club.

Merv Perra 150000 targets

 

 

Seventy different shooters attended this two day shoot, participating in singles, handicap, and doubles events on both days.  Conditions were excellent as were the targets and it was reflected in some very good scores.  Ron Hull shot a 100 straight in Saturday’s singles which also saw three 99’s and four 98’s.  Sunday’s singles also had high scores with Don Meece topping the list with his 99 followed by eight 98’s.  Don started out a little slowly on Saturday but warmed up on Sunday, shooting the high score in two of three events and going on to take HOA for the weekend.

A second milestone was that this was the first registered shoot at Old Skagit since the formation of the Moose Old Skagit Gun Club Special Purpose Corporation. The club is now member owned and no longer a part of the Mt. Vernon Moose Lodge.  Look for more information on this in the near future.  (All registered events will be held as currently scheduled.)

Hope to see you at our Doubles Marathon on July 18th.
