We will be working this Saturday at 11:00 AM to install drainage tile on the site for the new action shooting range. We need as many volunteers as possible! If you have shovels, spades and the like please bring them.

If you have a bobcat or trenching machine please call Bob Godlove and let him know! Heavy machinery would make the job go considerably faster.

If we have a frog strangling rain on Saturday we will postpone till 1:00 PM on Sunday April 1st for doing the work. This is not an April fools!

1st Heavy Equipment on Saturday the Action Range (Help Needed)

ΞPublished on: March 22nd, 2007 | ∇ Action Range Updates, Upcoming Events |

Weather permitting we will have the 1st run with heavy equipment to remove stumps, relocate rip-rap concrete, and lots of dirt moving.  There will also be an opportunity for quite a bit of manual labor to relocate the recently cut wood and generally assist in the moving of dirt and concrete.  If you have shovels, pry bars, chain saws, etc they might prove useful.  Strong backs and willing hands will definitely be useful!

Some additional information on recent recommendations for the Action Range:

• Each of 4 positions will need equipment tables 5′ long, 18″deep and 30″ high.  If you have a good design for these tables please let Bob Godlove know.
• We will want to have restroom facilities closer to this area (we expect to have a lot of traffic here) and it will likely involve a 4′ x 8′ slab and some newer facilities.
