For the time being it’s February

Friday, February 13th, 2009

Roger Wolff was woken bright and early this morning by a telephone call asking where the target lists for this weekend’s shoot could be found.

Having quickly overcome the fear that he’d fallen victim to a Rip van Winkle moment, Roger explained that 15th March – the date of the SCAS Indoor and Sussex Indoor Championships at the K2 Crawley – will arrive in timely fashion next month.

15th February falls on this weekend, four weeks before the Indoor Championships.

And that’s no fooling because April is the month after the Indoor Championships.

Spare Roger (who’ll need a lot of sleep between now and the shoot as he’s responsible for setting up the venue) another early alarm call by tying a knot in your quiver belt and marking the date in your diary: Sunday 15th March at the K2 Crawley.

Note: the SCAS Indoor is now full and a waiting list is in operation (and that’s up to 15 already) but there are still eight places left in the Sussex Team Championships and 25 in the Sussex Individual Championships. Download your entry form by clicking here or call Roger Wolff on… or maybe don’t.
