Latest Club News: Exciting Updates from Mission Skeet
& Trap Club
The Annual Mission Skeet & Trap Club Meeting took place on November 25, 2024, and it was an eventful gathering for our members. A big congratulations goes out to Osvaldo Saenz, who was elected as the new Trap Director, succeeding Mr. Glick. In turn, Mr. Glick stepped into the Rifle Director position, previously held by Jonathan Chors. Thank you to these dedicated individuals for their continued leadership and service to our club.
A Year of Progress and Accomplishments
2024 was a remarkable year for our club as we achieved
several key project goals:
- Midway Foundation Grant: This generous $10,000 grant allowed us to install stadium lighting on the 5-Stand range, significantly enhancing night shooting opportunities.
- Voice Callers for Skeet: We stretched our grant funds to purchase three additional voice callers, improving the skeet shooting experience for our members.
- Upgraded Controllers: Both 5-Stand MT4300 Multi-Trap Wireless Controllers were upgraded from a key system to a card system, offering greater convenience. We also added a third MT4300 remote, bringing us to three fully functional remotes for seamless operation. One remote is always in the newly created lock box at the 5-Stand for those club members with key access.
- Archery Range Improvements: In partnership with the City of Mission, we leveled the archery range to 90 yards and added a safety berm, providing a better and safer space for archery enthusiasts.
- Sporting Clays Expansion: We completed three sporting clays stations, each featuring four machines with 12 diverse shooting angles, offering an exciting variety for our members.
- Social Media Presence: Over the past year, we’ve been building our online presence, and we’re excited to remind everyone that Mission Skeet & Trap Club is now on Facebook and Instagram, and we have our new website!
Looking Ahead: We are proud of the strides we've made this year and look forward to even more successes in 2025. Thank you to all our members for your support and participation in making the Mission Skeet & Trap Club a premier facility for shooting sports in our community.
