The Montpelier Gun Club Vermont has experienced devastating flooding. The club was able to remove the Pat Traps on Sunday but the club house and trap houses were inundated with flood waters from the Winooski River. The shot curtain and/or the poles are also likely damaged but they will not know until the flood waters recede. If you’ve never shot at this club you’ve miss out on good people who love shooting trap and go out of their way to host a good shoot.
This will likely be a financially devastating event for the club without assistance since insurance will likely not cover the flood loss.Please consider donating to help rebuild the club. Please makes checks payable to the Montpelier Gun Club and note your donation. Mail to Box 664, Montpelier, VT 05601. This is the address of the VT Trapshooting Association. Remember “There go I but for the grace of God.”

Things looking much better today than yesterday. It had been reported at one point in the storm the water was up over the top of the clubhouse. There will be much work to be done once we're able to get in there.
