RANGE RULE REVIEW

50. Steel shot and slugs are not permitted on any range.

PLEASE HELP: ELECTRICIAN

Our new gate is installed! We need a certified electrician to review the meter/breaker before Duke will connect power. If there is a member who would be willing to help the club with this certification, please let us know!

2nd Reminder!! Please be sure your address is correct on file, so you will receive your gate card.

Also looking for volunteers to help put the cards together and stuff envelopes.

RANGE UPDATES

The Long Range has been cleared out to 400 yards! There is still some minor grading to do and then grass seeding and a gravel drive. Hopefully done in time for our CMP matches!

TICKS!

I'm not a big out-doorsy person, and yet I still found a tick on me today. For those who may not like using the commercial chemical sprays - there is a more natural solution. Vinegar! This is a hugely versatile liquid for cleaning and deodorizing. Spray vinegar around the bottom of your pant legs prior to going outside. Ticks hate the smell. If you hate the smell of vinegar as well, you can add a few drops of citronella or lemongrass essential oil - these scents also deter ticks and mosquitoes.
