CCR News June 2020

June 2020 http://www.canadacreekranch.com June CCR Shooters Corner Welcome back Ranch members! By the time you read this I am hoping the world shutdown has ended for good. Due to the restrictions imposed on the Ranch shooting range maintenance we are behind in our attempted projects for this season. One of our projects was to enable the Ranch members to enjoy a new venue allowing prone, sitting, and standing shooting at the 200-yard and 300-yard targets. Another scheduled repair and replacement of 50, 100, and 200- yard backstops. Also, it has been proposed to change the 25-yard backstop to wood backstops. We estimate repair of the spinning plate target will occur this summer sometime also. Everything takes time and we have been delayed now for 2 months already. Please bear with us as we strive to bring the shooting range back to a usable condition for all the members. We have noticed that the large rubber shooting rests have received great reviews and the members have taken good care to return all the shooting ear protectors back to their proper hanging positions. Also, we noticed that the provided staplers have been available for all members to utilize when needed. Thank you for being respectful of the new equipment that has been provided by the Shooting Sports Committee these past 2 years. We will continue to make equipment and range improvements as monies permit. REMINDER! DO NOT DRIVE ON THE RYE FIELDS OR FOOD PLOTS. A special thanks to Gary Zechel for removing the old pistol range wire backstop and replacing it with a brand new one. In a final note please feel free to suggest any improvements to the ranges that would benefit the Ranch and its members. Send your suggestions through the office attention of the Shooting Sports Committee. - Shooting Sports Committee REMINDER: Safety First Always! REMINDER!
