We also put up a short distance target for those juniors who can't yet get out to 30Yds ( we set this at 20yds for 4 dozen and 10yds for 2 dozen ). This shorter distance is usually excluded from the medals but is included for the chocolate.
Dress code is relaxed, no green or white, if you have club shirts and want to wear them with jeans that's ok. Just make sure whatever you wear is safe. The usual warnings about jewellery, long hair needs tying back, etc.... Be prepared for sunshine and showers ( lotion and waterproofs !! ) shorts or thermals. Can't do anything about the wind !
More details will be available in the container...
