Robin Hood.....here we come!

The Saturday morning peace at Carden Park was shattered when the Ladies versus Men Shooting Competition took place.  Alex and Phil from the excellent Carden Park Events Team took their lives in their hands when they organised a three part shooting competition.  Clay Pigeon shooting with Lazer 12 bore guns, Archery and Air Rifle target shooting.  The men won the Clay Pigeon shooting the Ladies won the Archery by a large margin, (shades of the Hunger Games) which left the series finale, the Air Rifle target shooting.   After a tense round the ladies came out on top to win the competition 2 events to1. The victorious ladies are expected to dress as Assassins for the Preston Circle 144 007 themed Dinner Dance on the 21st of March.
