Appreciation of Mike Wood, Club Secretary 2016-2025

9 March 2025 by Alton Rifle Club

The committee and members of Alton Rifle Club would like to publicly thank Mike Wood for his service as Club Secretary between 2016 and 2025.

As Club Secretary, Mike was the first point of contact for new members and this contact continued through initial induction and training sessions as a Club Instructor.  Furthermore, on top of his own competitive shooting, he’d often open and supervise the range and was instrumental in expanding the number of Range Conducting Officers and qualified scorers within the club.

There are many other aspects of running the club that Mike was involved with, such as range maintenance. We are indebted to him for all his work.

Certificate of Appreciation
