23.01.2022 Regrettably with the fire activity still current and the forecast for Friday and Saturday being less than favorable Cooma Sporting Clays has made the decision t...o postpone the novelty shoot "To thank the local fire crews" by one week to Saturday the 8th February. Hopeful conditions will have improved by then. As per the original invitation (below) we would like to make the day for the local RFS Crews, Fire Rescue NSW, and other agencies involved in the recent fires an enjoyable one at the club. Thanks to the local fire crews Having had a discussion with some of the club members at Cooma Sporting Clays over the weekend, the club would like to invite the members of the local RFS, Fire Rescue NSW and anybody else involved in the monumental effort put in over the last month, to have a day off at the club on the Saturday 1st of February. We are putting on a novelty shoot, shooting licence not required, nor your wallet / purse. The club will cover all costs throw a few targets. BBQ lunch. We have club firearms and the day will be fully supervised and safely run by club members. Hopefully we can get the message out and get as many as we can to the club.

23.01.2022 CLEAN UP MORNING ..... After a hectic few weeks we have decided to have a clean up before the next bout of bad weather. General washing and maintenance of trucks, tidy up and stock take of equipment and general shed tidy up. Kicking off 8am Saturday (tomorrow) morning and hoping to be done by 11am. We've had some great help over the last few weeks and whilst this job isn't a favourable one it still needs to be done. Many hands make light work so if you are able to help we w...ould love to see you there. Thanks yet again from the Rocky Plain Brigade.
