Heritage Match 2017
August 27, 2017 was a beautiful day for our annual Heritage Match at the Barrett Creek range. Seventeen shooters competed with ten of them winning medallions for their efforts. There were also a number of spectators and workers with all enjoying lunch; chef Glen McKen as usual did an outstanding job at the grill, while Dan Danforth and Marvin Paisner ran the competition smoothly as always. Chief Steven Wood of the Ymir Fire Department provided a water supply for possible fire suppression.
