Drain the Swamp, .... Well, Almost

Volunteer, Dave Bailey starting the ditch work.

An earlier post discussed the drainage problem along our access road.  Dave Bailey offered his help to clean the ditch which has become clogged with sediment and plants over the years.  The work has begun.

This work is weather-dependent, so there is no telling how long it will take, although I was pleasantly surprised at the progress made in the short time I was present.  Please be patient.

Also note, your co-operation is needed as we continue to use the facilities while work proceeds.  This especially effects the use of the shooting facilities.  This work has priority!!!

Shooting from the 100 yard benches can still take place, BUT ALL shooting needs to cease to allow the dumping of the sediment dredged from the ditch.  Your SAFE co-operation is appreciated so that the range need not be closed.

There are other members pitching in to complete this work.  Thanks to all involved.

This is a temporary situation, so be patient .... and THANK Mr. Bailey for donating his time and machine to help the Club.
