After serving as range chairman for many years, Ed Reitz has stepped down from this position. Will Deschenes will be taking over as the new range chairman. Please give Ed a big thank you for his efforts over the last few years to make our ranges safe and well kept.
Other Range notes: A new gate leading from the parking area to the range was put up. This gate will closed except when servicing the range.
Additionally, two of the rifle range targets need to be replaced as well as the large torso target on the pistol range. We'll be looking for some volunteers to assist in replacing the main bean that the pistol targets are attached to.
