NEWS

Since the founding of the club, a weekly bulletin has been written and distributed to our members. Guided by a rich legacy of experience, whether the bulletin is written in the spirit of Ray Bates, Paul Clarkson, or John Tripp, or whether it is in the words of current members Rick Genenbacher or our current editor the "Big Dog" Jeff Dorsey, the QSC Bulletin features all the news that fit to print...and a lot that isn't.

Meet past and present editors:
