Club chairman Graham Rowcoft respresented the club at the East Grinstead carnival at the weekend. It was the first time in 20 years that the event had been run and the club thought we should have a presence.

Club members Andy Meyers and Malcolm Brain shot in the trials today. Andy made the team... Malcolm missed the cut in squad A by a couple of points. Had he been in squad B he would have been ok!
Andy scored 396 in the 100yds - top score! To quote Andy, the less said about the 50s the better... good enough, anyway to put him 2 points inside the cut in squad B.
Congratulations to Andy and commiserations to Malcolm.

This weekend saw the City of London Finals at the Surbiton Postal Rifle Club in Kingston on Thames with the "C" team and several individuals from East Grinstead TSC in attendance.
The day didn't start well with a water main burst on the A243 closing the road. The satnavs picked a variety of very interesting alternative routes! Despite this all arrived in plenty of time and were raring to go!

The work party got quite a bit done on the range to get it ready for the open shoot.:
So quite a useful work party. Thanks everyone.
