Getting together for our practice up in Aroostook this week were Matt Bouchard (177-198 R+L), Chad Bouchard (199-220, and very soon 198!), Cole Disy (199-220 R+L), Mike Verdecchia (199-220 L),Brian Jones (199-220 R+L), and visitor Justin Quinnones (156), and after a few weeks the camera came along as well! We’ve sparked some interest up north and have had new visitors for the past few weeks and so practices have been growing!
