Delegates Article for the May issue of Trap & Field
Hello from the New York State. I hope that everyone is doing well and staying safe and healthy. If you are traveling home from out west or the south, please proceed safely. I hope that everyone had an enjoyable Easter Holiday.
I am sorry to say that New York has lost two more shooters. Deborah Vendel and Barbara Rosowski have both passed away.
Deborah Vendel passed away on March 9, 2023 at the age of 84. Deborah was the mother of ATA All-American Chris Vendel and the grandmother of the late Junior Gold All-American Christopher Vendel. Deb started registering targets in 1976. During her career, Deb registered 62,755 singles, 26,850 handicap, and 5,550 doubles targets. She was standing on the 19 yard line when she stopped registering targets. In 1978, Deb won the Handicap Championship during the New York State Shoot with a 96. Deborah was a wonderful lady who always donated shotgun shells as a prize for Sub-Junior and Junior Shooters during the New York State Shoot. Our deepest sympathies to her son’s Chris and Jonathan and all in here family on her passing. Deb will be missed.
Barbara Rosowski passed away on March 12, 2023 at the age of 79. Barb was the widow of Trapshooter Jim Rosowski, who passed away in 2020, and were married for 51 years. During her career, Barbara registered 56,925 singles, 34,175 handicap, and 11,200 doubles targets. Barbara was standing on the 23 yard line and started registering targets in 1975. Barbara and Jim attended many shoots in New York, including the home grounds in Cicero, New York, PA, Ohio, and winters in Florida. Our deepest sympathies to Barb’s family on her passing.
The 2023 Southern Grand American was held at the Silver Dollar Trap Club from March 12th, 2023 to March 19th, 2023. A total of 49 New Yorkers made the trip to Florida to attend the tournament. During Sunday’s Preliminary Singles, Daniel Boisclair was the Class C Runner-up. In Monday’s Preliminary Doubles, Joshua Buchiere was the Class AA Champion. In Tuesday’s Preliminary Doubles, Heidi Womer was the Lady 1 Champion and Urban Womer was the Veteran Runner-up. In Tuesday’s Ricky Marshall, Jr. Singles, Lady 1 Champion was Heidi Womer and Urban Womer was the Veteran Runner-up. During the B. Schumpert Handicap, Lady 2 Runner-up winner was Susan Gullotta and William Wallis was the Senior Veteran Champion. In the Doubles Champion Ship, David McMasters was the A Runner-up Trophy Winner and Urban Womer was the Veteran Runner-up. In the Handicap Championship, James Flint took 9th place and Martin Gawron was the Sub Veteran Champion. Finally, in the High-All-Around, Martin Gawron was the A Champion. All trophy winners can be viewed on ShootsScoreBoard.com and in Trap and Field Magazine. This was great shooting by all.
Please remember that the first shoot at the home grounds in Cicero will be the Empire Grand American. The Empire Grand will be held from Wednesday, May 10, 2023 to Sunday, May 14, 2023. We hope that you all plan to attend.
