back to 2024.01.27 Winter Field Day Clear Lake

2 event media:




NAGC was doing a somewhat informal event, a sort of "lets announce it and see who shows up", with just a handful
of people from their club going to be spearheading the event. They chose the local gun club house since some of
their club members were also members of the gun club. Parking was good and the building was pretty spacious,
but it wasn't well insulated and the heating struggled to keep it warm in the cold temperatures. Everyone had
to keep at least a jacket on, though it was fine as long as you kept active.

The building had no running water or functional cooking, and the fridge wasn't plugged in, but someone had provided
a box of MRE's. I've never tried them, but they were pretty good. The best way to keep the chill away is to
keep eating well, and so the calories were appreciated.

The range had a decent outhouse near the building, closer than the ones at Ingawanis tend to be for example.
The room had plenty of table space to set up gear and radios, though it started to get a bit crowded with more
than 8 people there at once. But the average head-count was around 6 so that was fine. Water was available
from a well pump just behind the building, though I don't think it got used. One of the attendees brought a
case of bottled water to supplement what others personally brought in.
