Range and Match News We still haven't received a report from the range export that looked at our property last month. Hopefully, we'll hear something soon. Meanwhile, we reviewed bids on the dirt work for the new berms to be built between upper ranges 2 and 3. (See last month's newsletter.) The low bid of $3,100.00 came from Herman Reeves. The club members voted to approve this bid. The club members also voted to spend the leftover $1,700.00 (of the $5,000.00 that had already been approved) on dirt work for the new plinking range. The members also approved a motion to spend $12,000.00 to build the rest of the plinking range. Club members will perform most of the labor. When done, this range will have twelve shooting positions with concrete pads, plus target berms at distances ranging from ten to 200 yards. Because of the size of this expenditure, this motion must be ratified by the club members at the next club meeting in October. In match news, the club members approved a motion to add three additional smallbore silhouette matches to the schedule. The matches will be held in October, November, and December on the third Sunday of the month at 1:00 p.m. Also, a motion was approved to move the September shotgun match to September 25, to avoid conflict with the state smallbore silhouette match. Finally, a motion was approved to sponsor a match directors' dinner later this year, to set up the 2005 match schedule. James Squires will contact the match directors with the time and place.
Motions Made To Raise Dues Three different motions were made to raise the club membership dues for 2005. These motions will be considered and voted on at the October club meeting. The motions were for $75.00, $50.00, and $60.00. Only one of these motions will actually be approved. An additional motion was also approved to offer a three-year club membership at a discount of $10.00. This motion must be ratified at the October club meeting.
