Action Range Funds update

ΞPublished on: March 29th, 2007 | ∇ Action Range Updates, Announcements |

About 50% of the people who pledged money for the action shooting range have paid up. Thank YOU! to everyone who has sent in their money.

Unfortunatly this leaves us about $6400 short of what we need for construction. We plan to continue on construction and assume that people will pay us the money they pledged before the bills come in.

If we run out of $$ before construction is complete we will halt construction until we do have the funds. We won’t be leaving any bills unpaid.

If you pledged funds for the Action Shooting Range project and haven’t yet paid up, please send in you funds.

If you have a friend that pledged and hasn’t paid yet a little bit of peer pressure wouldn’t hurt to help us get this thing finished before prime shooting season is here.

Thank you again for everyone that has donated money and time to this project. Be sure to continue checking out this section of our website for future updates and volunteer opportunities.
