Google map of the (now correct) location here.

That's actually the wrong spot sparks.
Search for
Kildare County Council
Naas
Ireland
in google maps. The office are on the Limerick rd (newbridge rd colloq.) opposite the Osprey Hotel

Sparks, your map link is incorrect.

Correct location is indicated on the calendar on the NTSA website www.targetshootingireland.org

I hate naas.
Last time we had the AGM there I was driving around for the guts of an hour trying to find the offices we were holding it in.
Even searching in google maps is a pain.
Okay, I've edited the above link to point to the same spot in the NTSA calendar (it could do with being a bit more front-and-center, btw ).
Thanks for the heads-ups guys.

I hate naas.

Raise a motion at the AGM to have it held somewhere else next time then.

I would if I could source a location where we could do it without having to pay exorbitant fees for room hire and the like.

Sounds like attendance was up on last year and there's a fair bit of enthusiasm for bringing on the 300m and CF pistol disciplines. Good stuff. Would have gone myself but Fresher's Flu is taking it's toll this weekend

It wasn't me!

I was sitting there, dying. Every time I cough, it's like a grenade going off in my head.

It's fantastic to see the MNSCI influence pimping centrefire pistol and rifle. Apparently they intend to host three 300m shoots before the end of the year, which sounds fantastic to me.
