2023 Presentation Dinner
2023 Presentation Dinner
Bathurst Rifle Club Inc., 12th January 2024. 2023 BRC Presentation Dinner.
Club members attended the annual Presentation Dinner on Friday evening at Bathurst RSL Club where they enjoyed a two course meal followed by the presentation of over thirty trophy’s and medals won by members during the 2022-2023 shooting season. The year’s program had seen several breaks due to events and works carried out on the mount late last year resulting in a postponed presentation dinner.
It was pleasing to see Dave Butler receive several shooting awards including the clubman of the year trophy. Dave is one of our newer members who has been a great asset since joining and along with Phil Mahon and the help of many other members has put an enormous effort into improvements at the club recently, they were also a driving force to facilitate the return of the successful rifle club OPM last October. Dave has also recently taken on the club Treasurers position, relieving our long standing and much appreciated club Treasurer and life member Gordon Shepherd who has served diligently in that role for over 45 years. Club members also thankful for and appreciate the work of club captain Graeme Bright who is continually attending to the many issues we have to deal with regarding the range use.
It has been great to see the improvements to the facilities at the Bathurst Rifle Range over the last few years with thanks going to all the club members that contribute in whatever way they are able to.
