FELLOW MEMBERS,

IT HAS COME TO OUR ATTENTION THAT THE GATE LOCK HAS HAD MANY COSTLY REPAIRS THROUGH OUT THE YEAR.

OUR LOCK IS NOT A SPRING LOADED LOCK.

WHEN UNLOCKING THE LOCK, INSERT THE KEY, AND GENTLY

TURN THE KEY RIGHT WHILE PULLING DOWN ON THE ON THE BASE OF THE LOCK. TURNING & FORCING THE KEY FURTHER THAN IT NEEDS, DAMAGES THE INTERNALS, AND MAKES THE LOCK USELESS.

THANK YOU,

DAN HARMAN

SHOOTING CUBES

Fellow members,

It has come to our attention that some members are using Shooting Cubes at the club.....They are allowed to be used, but please keep them within 2 yards of the plywood backers. If you place them in the middle of the 100 yard range, ricochets can occur. You are free to place them any where in the Pistol Range. This also includes golf balls......Thank You !! (BoD)
