Main Range\nMaintenance Closings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mowing is\nscheduled for the following Wednesdays: 6\/9, 6\/23, 7\/7, 7\/21 and 8\/4.   The Main Range is closed while mowing is\nbeing performed; however, the Pistol Range will remain open.  Mowing times vary depending on volunteer\navailability.  Dates may vary depending\non weather and ground conditions.  If\ndates change, an effort will be made to post updates on the website.  Checking the website before traveling to the range\nis always recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Main Range\nwill be closed while work is being performed to replace the bridge on the\n25\/50\/100 yard portion of the range.  The\nPistol Range will remain open. Dates will vary depending on volunteer\navailability and weather\/ground conditions. \nIt is expected that work will commence in late May and extend through\nthe end of June.  Check the website for\ninformation updates before going to the range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reminders<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police your\nbrass and trash before leaving the range.  Brass can become a\nhazard to facilities and personnel during mowing.   Brass may be discarded in the buckets\nprovided for that purpose.  The trash\ncontainers at the range are not intended for use by the general\nmembership.  Take home all trash (e.g.,\nused targets, drink containers, and particularly food wrappers and food\nremnants).  Failure to remove your trash\ncauses extra, sometimes quite unpleasant, work for the few volunteers who empty\ntrash containers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do not shoot\ntarget frames of place objects to be shot on the frames. \nAll shots should go through the cardboard backers on which targets are\nposted.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Newsletter\nEditor<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The club is still\nseeking a volunteer to serve as Newsletter Editor.  The editor is responsible for collecting\ninputs from club officers and ROs, preparing the newsletter, and distributing\nit via email or USPS (per member preference) two weeks prior to club meetings.\nInterested members may contact Marty Didion (martindidion4@gmail.com<\/a>) to volunteer and\/or to receive additional information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
