Inter-Livery Charity Clay Shoot

Dear Clerks / Captains,

Just a New Year chase to you all, that it is only fourteen weeks to the Inter Livery Clay Shoot in May and with many of you having returned your application forms and paid many thanks.

Those that haven’t please do so at your earliest convenience as entries are now beginning to fill up – so don’t delay.

If you are wanting to enter a team, we are limited to 250 guns per day (60 teams) maximum per day, please check the web page for your team allocation. Please note the entry requirements on the Application Form.

Just to remind everyone – the purpose of the day is to enable Liveryman from all Livery Company’s to have a day together. To meet new people and renew old friendships.

But – there is also an opportunity to raise money for Charities of the winner’s choice as well as the Lord Mayors Appeal and The Prince’s Trust which we have supported since the events first year.

We will have the Marquee again this year with Hog Roast back on the menu as well as some exciting new shooting stands and more on the day prizes.

The February Newsletter is attached as well as being on our web page.
With best wishes,
Chris and Richard
