First of all, I’d like to thank 3 members for their work related to the upcoming berm work: Our Chief Instructor Scott Sampson has done a miraculous job of getting the contracts ready and approved by both our board and the 4-H Center’s board. Secondly, I’d like to thank our Provost Mark Fitzmorris, for it was Mark who identified MT2 years ago as the go to contractor for the lead remediation effort. Mark will also be helping in the monitoring of both contracts. Thirdly, I’d like to thank Wes, and by default Brenda, Norton for he has volunteered to be at the range whenever needed, when I’m not available.
Now for the latest and greatest status of the schedule: MT2 is currently in Valdosta GA, and got flooded out of their current job (anyone watch the Masters’ golf tournament?) This has caused our start date to slip. The latest word is that they will be here Friday or Saturday. Whenever they arrive and begin work ALL ranges will be closed. The 50-yd and 100m ranges will remain closed until all work is complete. I also found out that their work schedule is 7-5 Monday through Saturday, so the trap and skeet fields will only be open on Sundays. If there is a day, other than Sunday, that they don’t work, I will adjust the calendar and post it on the website.
To avoid flooding everyone’s inbox with potentially unwanted emails, I will provide at least weekly updates on the club’s website. I will pin my posts so that they appear at the top, but no emails will go out. My intention is that this message/post will be the last one on this subject until the work is complete. I’ll also try to post updates on the club’s Facebook page.
