We are now on facebook for those interested. Just search “hope rod and gun club.” Facebook is a quick and fun way to exchange information and ideas, but we will not use this as an “official” means of communication. The updated By Laws can be found HERE. They will soon be posted at the club.
We have done some updates to our web site, hopegunclub.com. There’s still a couple things to go up, but anyone having something they want posted to the site please contact site Administrator Jim Meili . Thanks!!
Greetings everyone! Having just taken over the President position from Doug Job I would like to explain to everyone how the club plans on handling communications to members. Sorry it's kind of long, but it's all important.
You may already know that the Hope News Letter will be published each month. Distribution will continue to be via e-Mail to those who have requested so, AND by US Mail to those who have not requested to receive by e-Mail. Obviously it is to the Club's advantage, both financially and time-wise, to distribute information by e-Mail. It is fast, cheap, and allows the recipient to respond back immediately with any questions, corrections, complaints, kudos, etc., which I encourage you to do. There is also another advantage to e-Mail that I will explain in a moment. Over the next few months, or as long as it takes to complete, the club will be contacting people to verify e-mail addresses(as needed), and to confirm with everyone else that they wish to receive it by US Mail. You will help me out if you go ahead and send the info. If you do not now receive the news via e-Mail, but would like to, PLEASE let me know. The US MAIL version of the news letter will be sent such that you will receive it the week before the next meeting. This way it also acts as a reminder of the up-coming meeting, as well as allowing me to include any new information received after the last meeting. Now, here's the e-Mail kicker - The e-Mail version of the news letter will be sent out TWICE: A day or two after the meeting AND an updated version the week prior to the next meeting. By using e-mail you not only get faster service, but TWICE the service!!
I encourage anyone to contact me with any suggestions they have. You can reach me by phone at 608-206-9169 or e-mail me at the Hope Gun Club email address:
