As noted in the results of the work party today, Range Chairman Bob Ray has started a range improvement project on the east 50 yard range. The objective of the project is threefold:
The location of the construction is indicated by the red oval in the image to the right. The dirt has been removed in preparation for laying a base of gravel, and then laying bunker blocks of concrete on top in line with the existing cinder block wall to create a concrete wall two feet thick. Another row of bunker blocks will be laid at range level beside the new wall to reinforce the dirt holding up the new wall.
The range may not be used while construction is in progress. The entrance to the range is blocked off by lane barrels and yellow tape.
