We have received the range inspection report from the CFO and she has highlighted some deficiencies that must be addressed before final approval is granted. Some major work must be done on the rifle range side berms to bring them into compliance. Also some issues on the shotgun range must be addressed before approval is granted. We have lost approval for our skeet range and 5 stand venues in the current configurations, but we are still permitted to shoot trap. She did state that if we continue in our current state that she would have to revoke our current application and we would have to start the application process all over again. So we have decided to voluntarily shut down the rifle range for an indefinite period to work on the berms to bring them into compliance. We have already made arrangements for an excavator and a supply of fill. We are working as fast as we can to get this work completed to get approval. It is a lot of work to be done and a few dedicated people to do it. As such, we are asking everyone who enjoys our facilities to take part in our efforts to get this done. If you feel you can dedicate some time to help us, we would deeply appreciate it. We will be putting out a work party schedule and if you think you can help out, please come out and give us a hand. We have accomplished a lot in the last few months and we can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thanks so much for your patience.

Archery Range
We are excited with the progress on the new addition to our facility. We have lots of dirt being dumped and it will be levelled off to make the range.... our hopes are to have a 100 yard archery facility for members to enjoy. It will still be a while before it's ready for use, but we are continuing to work on it and build targets.
