The President referring to the single item of unfinished business arising from the minute reading, explained the latest condition of the treasury entailed by the Estate of the late Frank Atkins and expressed the hope that this situation would be cleared by the date of the shoot.

After a discussion of the present circumstances of the Club arising from the loss of the Long Branch Ranges as a site for the shoot, a motion by F. Johnston seconded by T. Chivers “That the Galleries of the University Armouries be obtained for the Dec. 21 1957 and any suitable room at the same address for the purpose of the dinner” was duly carried.

Report of annual shoot 1957

...There was some nostalgia for Shoots (at Long Branch) and Dinners of other days, and so there should be, until some future time when we again can follow that long tradition, but thanks to our excellent committees most felt that once more our Club had fulfilled its purpose, "To promote by friendly target practice rivalry, the feeling of good fellowship created while serving in the Regiment."
