OLD BUSINESS
Vice President Frase shared an e-mail from President Wright stating there was
nothing new to report on the air base range. Also, President Wright spoke with
Jim Goodhart from MUCC, he will be attending a future meeting to discuss
membership options with the MUCC and will probably attend the September General
Membership meeting.
NEW BUSINESS
Range Officer Pillsbury explained he has a source to buy sand for $3.50 a yard
and would like at least 100 yards to raise the range berms. Motion made & passed
for $350 to be spent on sand. After discussion, Director Jolley amended his
motion to allow $500 to be spent for sand, motion passed.
Range Officer Pillsbury opened discussion with the group on a noise complaint he
received from the Baldwin Township Supervisor. A Tawas Beach Club resident filed
a complaint after hearing gun shot at 7:00 am. Director McKinny explained that
range rules need to be posted along with the hours the range is open. Director
Kindell suggested closing the range one half hour before sunset. A decision was
made that the range hours will be from 9 am until 1/2 hour before sunset.
Director McKinny and Range Officer Pillsbury will present a list of range rules
and the new hours to the general membership at the September meeting.
Range Officer Pillsbury shared an e-mail he received from President Wright
regarding dates to schedule an action pistol shoot with the Linwood Club.
Discussion was had and September 22nd was set as the date. Large bore and
benchrest will be on September 15th.
Range Officer Pillsbury shared a letter from Precision Shooting on benchrest
shoots. They sent samples of forms use in their matches to show how the shooter
did each time up and gave pointers on how they run their matches. Dick Wright
from Precision Shooting will visit our club August 18.
Range Officer Pillsbury will have all members attending the September general
membership meeting sign a release form that both club members and non-members
must sign before using the range.
Director McKinny suggested we should establish a schedule with 3 hour blocks
where members are here to monitor the range so it is open to the public and
signing a release form would be required from anyone who hasn't already signed
one.
Range Officer Pillsbury opened discussion on poly foam targets and suggested the
club try them out during site-in days. The cost would be $200 plus S&H for six.
Director McKinny will check his source to compare cost and said he would absorb
half the cost if the club will invest in ten. Motion made and passed to
spend up to $300 for the purchase.
Range Officer Pillsbury showed the group materials for the clubs NRA safety
library consisting of pamphlets, videos, and other material. He suggested the
material be secured and any member interested in reviewing it would sign it out.
The material purchased also contains danger and warning signs to be posted on
the range.
Meeting adjourned at 7:58 p.m.
