2nd Quarter 2015 Member News

Summer Is Here Granite Bay Members!

This is the 2nd Quarter of the Granite Bay Scat Tracks, our quarterly newsletter to our members.  We hope you are staying connected through our web page: http://www.granitebaysci.com/ and our Facebook Page. http://www.facebook.com/#!/GraniteBaySCI. We will continue to post events, projects, and new information on both of these sites for your review.  By checking these Internet sites, you get fast and up to date information on what’s happening with our Chapter.

Boy did we have fun on April 11 at our Annual fundraiser at the Blue Goose Event Center.  If you did not come, you missed another fun event for the Chapter.

We entertained over 180 people with over 20 guns and designer diamonds and handbags for raffle. Our silent Auction items made more money than ever before due to the quality and variety for everyone to bid on. Our Live Auction met expectations with solid hunt values, fishing trips, vacation resorts and solid guns. We even had a Colt Python revolver and a King Cobra revolver for those collectors out there.

Our food was tastey catered by Mack Thomas of Mac Que’s Barbeque. Chicken and Tri tip with all the fixins made for a delicious dinner topped off by Tony’s Fine foods apple pie.

Most important was all the generous attendees that supported all the auctions and bought a lot of raffle tickets so our bottom line was greater than last years event. We thank all who attended and all who donated this year.



Go to our web page to see the program and when we announce next years program date, mark it down and plan your April 2016 around us, do not miss this one!

2015  New Membership Drive:


We added 12 new members at our dinner with the new SCI membership program. If you joined at the event, SCI annual membership was $25 and Granite Bays was $5 for a total of $30. This SCI membership is a digital enrollment where you get all your publications on line digitally and not mailed to you, less costly and more efficient.

Membership:
As mentioned, we had a great response to new membership and renewal membership at our April 11 fundraiser. One person won a new Ruger 10/22 rifle and one lady won a Coach Purse. Just for joining or renewing a membership.

New Life Member:  Jerry Karnow, Head of the DFW Wardens, Congratulations Jerry.
As you know, new members are the lifeblood of any Chapter.  Now more than ever, with all the gun legislation in the news, we are only as strong as our membership to fight this battle. Do you know of one person who feels the same as you do about SCI’s mission. Please spread the word and get one new member and invite them to be members. If every member would bring in one new member, we would double our membership.

A membership form is on our web page: http://www.granitebaysci.com/ or call us at 530-305-7566 and we will email you one, simple.

Ok, that's it for now. We have some fun events planned for the fall so please come and participate at the events to help make them successful. Spread the word and bring a friend for some fun.  Hunt safe and let us know your successes.
Thanks, The Board: See you at the Annual General Meeting
