4/18/24 – Board – Hank, getting ready to start on pistol range backstop.  Will make sure target holders are good for Sherriff Department to shoot.

4/3/24 – Membership – Joe Tucker for Hank Webb, weather has set us back on working the backstops but once gets drier we will let everyone know when work will begin.

3/21/24 – Board – Hank – Hank presented a plan to rebuild and improve backstops at both pistol and rifle range.  The plan is built to try and keep the ranges open as much as possible, but they will be closed when work is actively being done for the safety of everyone.  These dates will be posted on Facebook page and Web as they become available.  Step one is to remove trees and brush from hillside on Pistol range.  This is being planned for the workday on March 30th, weather permitting.  There are volunteers that expressed interest in helping and they will be notified as needed.  Anyone wanting to see plan ask Hank and he will be glad to share.

3/6/24 – Membership – – Hank Webb, also very soggy.  Looking to rework backstops and use old tires that are at Owens property.  A plan will be approved at the board meeting and work will begin.  There was a question from Randy Swihart about extending the rifle range out to 200 yards.  The response was yes, it is part of a plan but backstops need to be increased first.  May not be this year but is part of long term plan.
