The 2026 V.I.P. pistol shooters have been practice shooting on Wednesday evenings at 7 PM all winter long on the indoor pistol range at Walnut Creek.  The team this year is tentatively comprised of Tim Innes, Steve McInchak, Cliff Snyder, Mike Town, John Bliley,  Dan Rogowski, Tom Fraley, and Tom Zawistoski.  The team captain is tentatively Tom Zawistoski.

Our 2025 V.I.P. Season officially wrapped up on September 7, 2025. Walnut Creek’s Fusiliers came in last place despite some excellent shooting by Steve McInchak and Mike Town.  We did not get to take home the RUBBER CHICKEN, but the competition was an enjoyable experience.

We are all looking forward to the 2026 V.I.P. League season.

             We Are The Fusiliers!

As the weather improves we will move to the outdoor pistol range.

The course is comprised of two shoots: a rimfire shoot and a centerfire shoot.  Each course is fifteen rounds.  Five rounds in 2 minutes, 5 rounds in 20 seconds, and 5 rounds in 10 seconds.  You can fire one or both courses.  There is no fee.  You just have to show up.  You may use one hand or two hands.  Open sights or red dots.  We will shoot on Wednesday evenings from April to August. Starting time will be about 5:30 or 6:00 PM. There will a final shootout (at a location to be announced) in September to see which team gets to take home the rubber chicken trophy for the year.  Remember, I did say this was a very informal shoot.  If you are interested, you just have to show up and try your hand at a light competitive shoot.

Need more information?  Call me, Tom Zawistoski, at 814-323-1762, or e- mail me at t.flyboy@yahoo.com.  Our membership is near 700 members, but we been having to make do with a small group of five to seven team members for the past several years.  It would be nice to pick up a few more shooters.  All you have to do is show up with your guns and ammo.
