There are only two remaining Work Detail Days.
The MDRC IDPA September 7, 2024 match scores have been posted.
Problem at the range. Someone carried bricks, rocks or small boulders down into the Hi Power infield and left them there. IF YOU CARRY MATERIAL, rocks, bricks, etc. DOWN TO WEIGHT A TARGET FRAME DOWN, REMOVE IT WHEN YOU FINISH! We cannot dispose of all of the rocks, but we can start monitoring the cameras to see who is leaving these obstacles.
It was brought to my attention that James was downrange setting Smallbore Silhouette posts, when someone started shooting without notifying him. Safety Issue! We try limit shutting the ranch down but there are times that we must. Once the new alarm system is in place, downrange work should be obvious to all coming to the range to shoot.

Having these shooting events helps us keep membership fees as low as they are. The work Waiver Fee helps when projects are taken on. Having a Work Day each month makes it easier for members to meet this obligation. Plus for those that cannot make it on any of these Saturdays, we can make arrangements to complete work requirement during the week.
I am still seeing paper and cardboard targets left hanging on the range frames. When you finish shooting, REMOVE YOUR TARGETS and properly dispose of them. Leave the range in better condition than when you arrived. As a member, this is your range, keep it clean. REMOVE YOUR TARGETS AND TRASH.
The Bench House card reader continues to act up, we are still working to resolve the problem with the Bench House reader. We are having trouble receiving the replacement parts, supplier has them back ordered; hopefully we can have it back in operation soon.
As always on match days the range is closed to all shooting activities for at least 2 hours prior to the start of the match, the exception is IDPA, which is 3 hours. The range is closed to all other activities until that Match Director gives the “All Clear”.
