Range Destruction & Repair
Photos here show what some irresponsible or just plain destructive shooters did to the 50 yard range during the winter. The rifle league team had to replace all the 2x4x10ft horizontal stringers as well as all 20 target holders. If this wanton destruction continues, it will not be long until the vertical STEEL uprights will be destroyed as well. Is this the way you want your range to look? If you see anyone shooting at the uprights or at the wood, please report them to the Gopher Board. That kind of shooter does not warrant membership at Gopher Campfire Club.
