  Member Alice Bean Andrenyak is facilitating this recurring event for any interested member women. Alice is a dynamic, interested and engaged pistol shooter with lots of knowledge to share. 

  The Women's Pistol Shooting Group will meet on the 1st Thursday of the month from 1:00 - 3:00pm.  We learn from each other and from Instructor Alice while maintaining safety during the complete session. We will have skills to practice for part of each meeting, some personal focused shooting time, and social time at the end. During the warm months, we will shoot on the Defensive Shooting Range unless the weather is poor, when we go inside. During the cold months, the indoor range is used. If we go inside and you are not indoor range qualified, you will be using a .22 lr cal pistol.  Each woman will bring their own pistol(s) and ammunition. Instructor Alice will sometimes offer a mini-class during the meeting. Free to all members.

• .22lr/air rifle indoor Postals and practice

    LCRC Clubhouse

  Thursday evening can be the time to get together with others to shoot Postals if the group elects from January through March.  General practice for the rest of the year.  Also welcome are those who have not signed up for the Postals but want to practice with their .22 rifle, .22 pistol, or air rifle and pistol.  On occasion some members practice with their centerfire pistols but it is not the focus of the gathering.  Postals are matches where Clubs around the State shoot the same type of targets and, these days rather than mail in the scores, the scores get emailed to Maine Rifle and Pistol Assoc for tabulation to see which Club did the best.   As with the Wednesday night shoots, it is a good way to socialize with members through the dark days of winter.  The time for meeting is fluid as some people show up as early as 4 and leave early and others show up later in the evening at 5:30 or so.
