Two individuals have been observed on Club grounds archery hunting.  Club Bylaws prohibit hunting and trapping on the Club grounds.  I suspect these were not members, just illegal, disrespectful, trespassers who think they can hunt where ever they please.  Violators WILL BE PROSECUTED!  If these are Club members, they will be prosecuted and membership revoked.

Jeff Brazo, President
