IN MEMORIAM, JIM LOMBARDI (Bass River Rod and Gun Club)

On Thursday, July 17^th Jim Lombardi passed away in the night leaving his beloved Bass River and his many friends.  If you have read the newsletter or followed events at Bass River then you are aware that Jim was involved in almost all aspects of the Club.   A past President, long time Director, current Chairman of the Nominating Committee and Committee Chairman of Outdoor Ranges comprised some of his numerous administrative responsibilities.  Now stand back for the sports because Jim did it all.  We’ll start with Practical Pistol Competition, NRA National Gallery, IPSC (International Practical Shooting Confederation), IDPA (International Defensive Pistol Association), Black Powder Competitions, and 3D Archery.  If there was enough space, a host of other activities would also be listed.  Jim defined himself through his intense involvement in the very fabric of Bass River.  He was also well known and highly respected by many at other Sporting Clubs in the Northeast.  We say farewell, but will not forget.  “Just do it, you can do anything that you want to do.”       Dick Hurley

Looks for help in Raising Funds to go to Camp Perry
During past years GOAL has helped revive the participation of Massachusetts junior teams attending the National Matches at Camp Perry Ohio.  They have done a great job.  In order to keep the participation growing there comes a time where clubs have to take on the responsibility of sending juniors from their own clubs out to Camp Perry as part of their Clubs Junior Program.  This allows more kids to go out to Camp Perry with the GOAL Program.
