Future Work Party

Uncategorized

Hello from your new elected MO, Cory Allen. With all the recent upgrades and repairs to the range I was left in pretty good shape. We will be looking to schedule a few work parties in September and/or October. I am currently waiting for information back from Kathy, the 4H center director, about helping with the new 3D archery range work party in early October. As soon as we find out details they will posted. If you need service hours this will be a good way to make them.

Now that the lead abatement and rebuilding of the SRB has been completed, we need to tackle a project on the berm separating the 100 from the shotgun range. The majority of the vegetation needs to be stripped so that we do not risk losing the berm in the event of a major storm, i.e. hurricane. The roadways down to the shotgun range will need to be trimmed back also. If any member has access to a tractor with cutting attachments, mini excavator or a skid loader/tractor with a grapple that would be a big plus. If you have access to this type of equipment, please reach out to me at [email protected] so that we can coordinate a good date for the work party.

I look forward to working with all the board members and the members of the club to keep the club in excellent shape and make future improvements to the facilities.
