Dubuque Field Archers




August News Letter

   Well our 3-D tournament season has come to an end.  All in
 all I feel it went well.  Our August 20th shoot saw I 1 5 
shooters try their luck on a fairly challenging course.  We are 
starting to get new faces from as far away as Cedar Rapids,
 Davenport, Manchester, and even a couple from Consil Bluff 
Iowa.  Most have been very pleased with the course; the set-up 
and overall appearance of our range.  Lets keep up the good 
work.  We need to show the archery community that we appreciate 
their patronage, and we will continue to make the Dubuque Field 
Archers the place to come and enjoy a day of shooting.  I would 
like to thank everyone who helped this season whether you set-
up, took down, cut weeds, whatever.  Without you people this 
club would not exist.
     The raffle's for the knight Rifles and Kawasaki four 
wheeler concluded on Aug. 20th, not all the figures have been 
tabulated as of this news letter, but early estimates indicate
we did fairly well for the short time we had to sell tickets.
feel these raffles were well worth the time and effort, and 
should definitely be considered as a way to raise money next 
year.
    Thanks to everyone who took time out of their weekends to
 take the four wheeler to several business' and spend the day 
selling tickets.  You made the difference in whether we made or
 lost money.  This tells me that you all care about our club and 
want to see it grow and build to be the best archery club in the 
area.  Thanks again for all of your support and the great amount 
of help you have given me as President of the Dubuque Field 
Archers.
    The winner of the second Knight rifle was: David Tegeler of 
Dyersville Iowa.
    The winner of the Kawasaki four wheeler was: Jason HefeLof 
Dubuque Iowa.
    There was not much to report from the August club meeting 
aq time was spent writing out the extra tickets for the people 
who had paid $5.00 a ticket for the four wheeler.  The board did
 approve to have C&S Small Engine look at the Yazzho riding 
mower to see if it can be repaired.  Carl from C&S says that the 
clutches may need adjustment.  If this will take care of the
 problem then we will have it repaired.


	The next scheduled Club Meeting is September 13, 2000 at
 7:00 p.m. at the outdoor range.  Hope to see you there.
