President Martinusen brought back to the floor the letter of complaint from William Ellis. The President had the Secretary read the letter in its entirety. The primary context of the letter was a complaint against members of the Kingsburg Gun Club with him also stating that a CGSTA director was hostile and threatening towards him. Also within the letter Mr. Ellis reported that he did not shoot the Sunday handicap due to the incident and he had not received a refund for that event. President Martinusen reported that he had spoken with the parties involved and that the Gun Club had taken no action regarding Mr. Ellis and did not intend to do so nor had the Club banned Mr. Ellis and his wife from shooting at the facility as Mr. Ellis reported.
During the discussion of the issue it was suggested that if a refund check needed to be issued then send a letter recognizing the receipt of his letter
and the Board noted its’ contents and hoped to see him at the State Shoot.
