Work party completes 50-yard backstop & archery range; camp winterized


The 50-yard backstop is done and ready. We had a special treat at the work party today.  Member Joel Harris showed up with his backhoe and made short work of moving railroad ties, digging holes and filling in the backstop with sand. He also took several loads of lime down to the pond and put them in.


I want to thank Joel, Andy Shaffer, Andy Chimenti, and Carl Huss for coming out in the cold to get this much-needed project done. 

We set a tie on the ground in front of the backstop so people can set cans and clay birds there to shoot, as long as they pick them up when they are done. There is to be absolutely NOTHING put on top of the ties for targets.


We also need to thank Carl for bringing us another truckload of the dried hard wood for the shooting room wood burner.

Brian and Scott Brubaker got the water turned off and the camp winterized. 



They also got the archery range done except for hanging the target in the shooting room.

Thanks fellows!
