SDPS Membership Appreciation Match is a GO!

sdpsidpaweb Information

The Membership Appreciation Match scheduled for tomorrow, Sunday December 1st is a GO. The Match will be rain or shine. This announcement was emailed to the SDPS membership earlier in the week. Unfortunately, we’ve had some issues with our email list (which we are currently rectifying) and members have been reporting that they are not receiving club emails and/or they are going into respective SPAM folders. Here’s a copy of the communication from earlier this week:

Happy Thanksgiving to all SDPS members and your families! 

This Sunday, December 1st marks the occasion of our 2019 Membership Appreciation Match (MAM). In addition, the match will also serve as our annual SDPS member meeting. Any SDPS member or non-member can shoot the match. The Member Meeting is for active SDPS members, and the BBQ following the match, and the MAM prize table will be open to eligible SDPS members only.*

Sunday’s match is rain-or-shine!

As has been customary, the stages will consist of several “burners” that will be conducive to shooting them quickly, even in poor weather, should that be an issue. We plan on finishing the match early. Once we tear down, we’ll all be heading to gather under the cover at Cowboy Town (Range 8) by 1:00 PM for the following events:

  1. Members Meeting – The Members meeting is open to all current members. We will discuss state of the club, member business (if any), and BoD elections (as required).
  2. MAM BBQ – The MAM BBQ is open to all eligible members*. A limited amount of additional BBQ lunches should be available for non-eligible members/guests for $20, on a first-come-first-served basis.
  3. MAM Prize Table – The MAM Prize Table is open to eligible members* and will conclude the MAM event. Every member who is eligible will get a ticket for this random drawing. Directors/Officers, CSO’s, SO’s, Match Directors, and Stage Managers will receive additional tickets for the drawing. Each participant can only “win” once, resulting in a single item drawn from the table. Must be present to win.

*MAM Eligibility

The criteria for eligibility for the MAM BBQ and prize table events are as follows:

  • Is a current SDPS member, in good standing
  • Has competed in at least 6 matches during 2019 (including reloaded and The Western)

I’ll be sending an email out to the SDPS membership by Saturday with a summary “State of the Club” email. This way, we can spend more time eating BBQ, and less time talking this Sunday! We look forward to seeing you all at the match. Keep your fingers crossed, and if appropriate, bring your Gore-Tex… Again, the match will be rain-or-shine!

Range Beautification Day

sdpsidpaweb Information

Hello SDPS!

On Saturday March 30th Range 2 will be closed for a range cleanup day.

We are looking for volunteers to assist. Lunch and drinks will be provided so please let me know who will available to assist.

Since its in March, we might try to do some Round Up spraying instead of all weed whacking, depending on weather and weed growth.

Another project will be pulling the cat 5 cables to Bays 1-3 to finish the upgrade on the wireless scoring system

We will also take inventory of the target stands we have I think it’s time to replace a bunch of them as they are starting to get low. The target stands belong to the range as they paid for the last batch we made. Last time we made about 200.

Again please let me know if you are available to assist in the range cleanup day.

This is a three club event so the more help the better.

Call for Special Membership Meeting January 6, 2019

sdpsidpaweb Information

It was great seeing everyone at our annual Member Appreciation Match yesterday! Hopefully everyone had a good time…

I’m writing this email to invite all active members to a Special Membership Meeting to be conducted during our NEXT club match. This will be the annual classifier match being held January 6th, 2019.

At this Special Membership Meeting  club members will participate in a vote on 3 proposed changes to the club bylaws. These proposed changes have been unanimously approved by the Board of Directors (BoD) and ultimately require a vote of the members to ratify the changes to the SDPS bylaws. The proposed changes are as follows:

  1. Annual Membership Meeting – It has been proposed unanimously by the BoD that the club move the annual members meeting (currently held in June) to the month of December to coincide with the annual Member Appreciation Match (MAM).
    1. The club bylaws require an annual membership meeting where club members have the opportunity to vote for individuals nominated BoD positions, as well as any other club business put to the membership for vote.
    2. By making this change, the BoD feels that it will help drive member participation in both the Member Appreciation Match as well as any club business involving the members.

  2. Notification for BoD Meetings – It has been proposed unanimously by the BoD that the advanced notice requirement be revised  read “to no less than 10 calendar days for both Special and Annual BoD meetings.”
    1. The notice requirement in the bylaws for special or annual BoD meetings is currently too long.
    2. It restricts the BoD from calling meetings on short, but fair notice to BoD members in order to address pressing club business.

  3. Notification for Membership Meetings – It has been proposed unanimously by the BoD that the advanced notice requirement be revised to “no less than 27 calendar days for both Special and Annual Membership Meetings.”
    1. The notice requirement in the bylaws for Special Membership Meetings is currently too long at 30 days.
    2. This often can restrict the BoD from calling Special Membership Meetings at a monthly match for the next month’s match.
    3. At 27 days, this will allow the BoD to notify members at a monthly match that there will be a Special Members Meeting at the following months match.

 

In the event the January match is rained out, the Special Member Meeting will be moved to the February match on February 3, 2019. Please let me know if you have any questions regarding these changes to the bylaws.

Be safe, have fun, and see you on the range!
