January Poplarville pistol match reminder
The January edition of the SMPSA pistol match will be held tomorrow (Sunday) at the range in Poplarville. The weather is looking a bit iffy right now with a 60+% chance of rain, so please check back here before driving to the range. We will make a call no later than 6:30 AM on Sunday. As most of you know, it isn’t so much the rain in the pit that is the problem. If we get rain tonight or in the morning, it can make it almost impossible to actually drive up the hill road to the range without 4 wheel drive.
