Work Party Cancelled

The work party scheduled for tomorrow is being postponed due to the current and incoming weather. Of course now that we have canceled the work party the sun will come out and shine. I will still be going to the range to unload the trailer of the approximately 100 2x6x10s and 12s into one of the conex boxes. If you are local to the range or feel like helping feel free to show up at 8am. We will reschedule the work party for a later date. I will keep the range closed so until 9am so that we can complete unloading the trailer.   Cory, aka The MO

March 2nd Work Party / Calling all Pinheads to build new tables

March 2nd, at 9am, will be a chance to get your service hours complete before the renewal period starts. We will be having a work party to build replacement frames for the ranges and to build the pin tables for the upcoming bowling pin season commencing in April. You Pinheads know who you are that shot up all the tables. Also, general range cleanup will be accomplished. We will need leaf blowers, power saws(table saw and/or miter saw), power drills and general hand tools for the projects. We will also need some extension cords to run from the building as power is currently limited at the SRB/50. A bonus would be a power washer to cleanup the concrete at the range and the bathrooms and also the doors on the building. There will be some other small jobs planned if time allows. If you have any questions or have specific skills or tools please reach out to me. Cory ASC Maintenance Officer
