Sir Walter offers many different
shooting opportunities; something for every sports person. Limiting
membership to 300 people and keeping the annual dues a very
reasonable level means that Sir Walter relies heavily on volunteer
labor from its members to keep the Club operating and maintained.
Recently, Sir Walter changed the method by which it employs our
member labor. Instead of once-a-month work days with unscheduled
labor, Sir Walter had established different committees to which
members will volunteer their services. Review the current committee
outline in the file contained in this page. You’ll see a wide range
of committee functions. Choose to join one or more committees whose
activities are closely aligned with your special skill sets.
The objective of committees is to
take the big job of operating one of the area’s finest shooting clubs
and organize it into a series of smaller jobs that can be completed
with a focused group of members led by a Chairperson. Committees will
be given a broad guideline on what they are to do, given the
resources to do it, and will be operated by an engaged and involved
group of members who believe that just doing the minimum isn’t the
sportsman’s way. Chairpersons will guide their teams to accomplish
their tasks, keep track of work done by members, and report each
members work completed at the end of the year.
Being a Sir Walter member is a
great privilege. We all work together to sustain the legacy. Should a
member decide not to participate in a committee, or if in a committee
decide not to meet the minimum work requirement (one 8 hour day), the
alternative is to pay the Club operating fee at the end of the year.
We think you’ll agree that with
this new committee structure, the Club will get more of its work done
faster and provide all of the members with greater opportunity to
shoot. Hope to see your name on one or more of our committees soon.
Please contact the committee chair directly to volunteer. If a chair
person isn’t yet listed, contact me and I’ll get you assigned to a
committee.
Thanks for your support of Sir
Walter
