Today is the first day of spring and it is sunny. A small group of us have been shooting on a regular basis and the range is in pretty good shape. It would be nice if people cleaned up after themselves and policed their spent casings and maybe even took the trash out once in a while.
There is news of the new range. We have acquired two (2) twenty year leases on a 66.5 acre parcel at Dave’s creek. (quite a bit bigger than our existing range) We will be going through design and construction this spring. We are waiting for NRA grant funds to begin the process. We will be continuing to use the existing range until the new facility is fully functional, so don’t get over eager for the new place. Thanks to Laura, Chris and many others this is happening quicker than anticipated.
One of our major supporters (financially) the USFS will be conducting training again this spring. Check out the events page for their dates of use and the range closures.
Time will tell about the Garand Match and the Vintage Military rifle match. If you have any ideas about some fun matches contact the webmaster to see if we can make it happen.
Please don’t shoot up junk and leave it at the range. I would like to think that if you brought it in to shoot up, you could also carry it out and dispose of it. It’s funny how I have found stuff people have taken to shoot but could not pick up and carry away. We find it at some of our hiking spots and at the range. Please be responsible shooters.
