    Admission


    Will be set at £10 for one day & £15 for both.

    This will go to cover all the costs for the venue, food & awards of the Competitions listed above. We are hoping for a good turn out on both days to make this financially viable.

    ubc.competition@googlemail.com

    Please let me know which day/days you will be attending



    Facilities

    There is a Pub/Restaurant adjacent to the club so you won't be short of food

    on the grounds.

    Anyone found, or suspected of being, under the influence of alcohol will be escorted from the site until after the contests.



    However anyone suspected of being sober after 20:30 hrs will be required to drink some more.


    Pitching of tents is available on-site & there are B&Bs around the area

    >B&Bs<



    Any one interested please put you name down on this thread

    More details will be put on this thread when they have been finalised

    We have done a Range Safety Criteria, that will need to be followed at our Meet.

    As we are mainly a 'fun' Pistol Club we still want to emulate our safety aspects towards pistol shooting


    If you can please read it, any questions just get in touch.

    I hope to be able to make both days.
    I certainly want to be there on Sunday as a very important person was born on that day in 19%* , and I should be allowed to choose how I want to spend the day.

    Ok Guy's and Gal's if you have never been to one of our meets, Please do come along if you can make it, it's a great weekend and this year we are holding it over two days, bring the other half, or a friend and make a real weekend of it. The days we have organised in the past have always been a great success, and the evenings are always a great laugh, especially after a few beer's.

    It's ONLY £10 for one day or £15 for the two days, that includes the range fee's, food and refreshment (supplied by paddy's lovely wife Helen, trust me you will not go hungry) and a donation towards the cost of the trophie's, even more reason to try hard and get your money's worth

    And if that's not enough, there are loads of pistols for you to have go with, members are more than happy to let others have a go with thier pride and joy.

    It really is a great weekend, and where else will you get such value for money for ONLY £10

    Unfortunately this event clashes with the NEFTA Classic (big FT comp always held on Bank Holiday weekend) and as this year is the 20th anniversary it should be extra special.

    So sadly I'll have to give the meet a miss. Have a good one guys 'n' gals!

    I’ll be there, for both days just found out my exam times, there’s a 50/50 chance they will start the same week, but I’m not that bothered, if they do it will just mean i will have to go easy at the pub
    Still haven’t got a defiant yes or no off my 2 friends, they are useless at organising stuff in advance

    Is it ok to hold off payment till my friends get there arse’s in gear so i can send a joint check which would save a couple of quid going to PayPal
    If they pull out then I’ll just send it by pay pal.

    Also could you put me down for camping? Just a small tent.(4 man or 3 men and my guns whichever way you want to look at it)

    Is it ok to come up on the Friday afternoon and leave Monday morning?

    I can be there then Saturday morning to help set up if I’m needed

    also I’d like to repeat the offer i made ages ago on another thread, that if you would like volunteers to help out to give you guys a chance to shoot then you can count me in
