FCSS competes at the Ole Mill Invitational in 5m BB! Our kids did a great job representing FCSS at the OMI on Thanksgiving weekend; Otis, Katarina, Donnie, David, Dylan, Charlie and Martin made us very proud. Congratulations to Martin for his second place trophy in 10 & Under Kneeling and Dylan for his third place finish in 10 & Under Prone. All the kids showed remarkable improvement from the practice match.

We had three coaches complete the 4-H Project S.A.F.E. Coach training that was held at Rock Eagle 4-H Camp in Eatonton, GA November 19-21; Todd Day, Laura Lovell and Robert Moreland will lead the new 4-H Rifle Club starting in January 2010.

Thanks to our new NRA certified Range Safety Officers who completed training on August 8th; Robert Moreland, Bill Balkovetz and Chris Williamson!

Congratulations to our new NRA/USA Shooting Level 1 Coaches. We will have 6 trained Level 1 coaches this Fall to provide our members with the best instruction possible; Todd Day, Ronny Duncan, Chuck Lovell, Laura Lovell, Marc Mathews and Robert Moreland. Thanks to you all for investing in our program. The training was intense yet very worthwhile.
