2025 SODZ Summer Picnic
August 2 @ 12:00 pm - 11:30 pm
10 am – 12 pm – optional shooting
12 pm – official start of picnic
12 pm – official start of picnic
Please see your email from SODZ President for more details, but we have a new date and venue for this year’s picnic. All members in good standing are invited and may bring a “plus one”. Children and dogs are welcome as long as they stay under your control.
This is where we will judge the Iron Kettle beers brewed on site at Hoster (scheduled for 6/21/25). If you have an Iron Kettle entry, but are unable to attend the picnic, send it with a friend. You need not be present to win.
Here’s what to expect:
- The lodge has a full kitchen and indoor bathrooms.
- SODZ will provide a catered lunch for members and guests.
- Members may bring additional snacks, desserts, and soft drinks. There will be outlets to plug in slow cookers, etc.
- We will set up the club jockey boxes inside the lodge, so bring your kegged homebrew!
- You’re also welcome to bring any commercial beers to share.
- There is a picnic shelter and a fire pit, but bring your own lawn chairs, picnic blankets, lawn games, etc. for use outside.
- There’s a playhouse for kids.
- Camping: you can also bring a tent and any camping gear if you’d like to camp on the grounds overnight (bathrooms will be accessible).
- Access to the Little Darby Creek trail will be restricted while shooting is in progress (obey posted flags and instructions).
Range Info:
- Any shooter should bring their own firearms and safety gear. The ranges are outdoor.
- Pistol ranges: 25 and 50 yard ranges with steel knock down targets. These are for pistol caliber ammo only.
- Rifle range: 100 yard range. Use rifle cartridges here only – not on the pistol ranges.
- For those without their own gear, Rick and Ron will bring a couple guns and safety gear to borrow.
- No drinking before shooting, and obey all safety instructions.
- Any questions – see Rick Doerr or Ron Sleppy, who are COAHC members and our hosts.
