The
scheduled time for the Club's regular monthly meeting has been changed
from the traditional 7:30pm to its new time of 7:00pm. This is not
temporary, and is the new meeting time for the Club.
The Club's regular Monthly Member's Meeting occurs on the second Monday of each month.
May through October meetings are held under the main pavilion on the
Club's grounds. November through April meetings are hosted at the John
Humiston Post 11 American Legion in downtown Jaffrey, NH.

Please refer to the Events
Calendar for up-to-date information regarding
onsite and offsite events and general scheduling at MRGCI.
Although
we are facing significant stresses as a Club at this time, we will
continue to perform volunteer work in the surrounding communities,
As many of you are aware, as of the
Monthly Member's Meeting on Monday April 8th, the Club's Firearms Range
remains closed as it has been since July 25th until further notice.
Please take note of the posted signage posted inside of the Club. Our
counsel is working on that issue presently.
We had original court dates set for September 6th and the 7th in
Manchester, until the court notified our attorney that owing to
scheduling pressures, the date was postponed to November 19th and the
20th. However, those dates were postponed soon afterward and were moved
to December 18th and 19th, then continued to April 17th which has now
been continued for our bench trial set for July 16th and the 17th.
Manchester Court; July 16th at 10AM, and July 17th at 10AM at the
Hillsborough Superior Court Northern District 300 Chestnut Street in
Manchester.
In the meantime, the Club is open for all activities except
shooting on the firearms range, so no shooting at the Club period. We
have been forced to cancel all activities related to the range's use,
like the Weekly Rimfire Shoots that were open to the public, a BSA
Merit Badge and training shoots, several Crotched Mt. CMARS
Rehabilitative shooting events, NHF&G live firearms Hunter
Education instruction (non-live will still be performed), our Member's
Day Ruger Public invite shoot, the RWVA Appleseed Riflery Training
shoots, and at this point, our annual Children’s Fishing Derby Benefit
Turkey Shoot and perhaps a benefit shoot for the Monadnock Squadron
Civil Air Patrol. That unfortunately includes sighting-in for hunting
season. Those are just items off of the top of my head, more are
traditionally scheduled on-the-fly.
At our August NHF&G class, we were not able to conduct
live-fire training for the first time ever. The added experience is one
that we certainly missed providing for our students. Twelve of whom
among this last class were young enough to require parental permission
slips!
Our archery practice area and 3D course will be open as per usual, as
well as our trout pond and all areas except the firearms range. Again,
please be aware of posted signage.
And of course, being as small an organization (some 300 Household
Memberships comprising perhaps 800 area adults and children) as we are
provides a severe financial burden on the Club coffers. We are doing
everything possible to maintain our defense, and gladly accept any help
offered, whether professional advice and assistance if you think that
you may have something to offer, or just plain cash.
To that end, the Board has opened a GoFundMe webpage (link below)
if you wish to contribute to the defense of your Club.

- Donation toward MRGCI Legal Fees
As a way to generate funds, we are opening up payment for the
2019 season now. Regular annual Household Membership dues are still
$100. Payment details are on the application/renewal form as per usual.
Links to this form are

Thank you for your consideration. And as mentioned, if you think that
you might have a skill or knowledge that could help the Club at this
time, do not hesitate to contact the Club.
