Franklin / Coffee County Meet

[Guest G-Pa Glynn]

Right now we are looking at OCT. 23 for the shoot this month. Let me know f any would be intrested in doing some repair work for the range that day. The guy that runs the range said we could do repairs and shoot free that day. We would be putting up two backboards and picking up the trash that is on the ground. The guy that runs the range does all the repair work when he can (and it also takes away from the fund for the rescue dogs).

[Guest G-Pa Glynn]

If we do the work, I will bring the wood for the backboards and some nails, and other supplies that we may need.

[DavidH1]

I will be there, and will bring the tools needed. Need anything else just PM me Glynn

[Guest G-Pa Glynn]

Will do David.

[Guest kdud03]

possibly be there but unsure. i am in the process of buying a house an moving an all that so i have been out of pocket for a bit.

[Guest Boonie]

Let me know if anything else is needed. and Kdud good luck on the house move.

[Guest kdud03]

thank you sir

[Guest G-Pa Glynn]

Kdud, good luck with the house and hope to see you there.

Also,

I was told today that the materials for the backboards and the post that need to be replaced are being donated by an anonymous doner. They are a non-shooter! They said that they wanted to do this and I am not going to tell them no. Any donations that are made that day will be going to help with the rescue dogs.

[Guest G-Pa Glynn]

All that will be needed will be workers and a little sweet and hard work. If you have post-hole diggers, we will need atleast one more set. I will be bringing the wood, nails, and one set of post-hole diggers. Bring snacks, drinks, and tools that you think we might need.

Also, this work day is open to any TGO member that would like to join us for some fun!

I'd like a little info on this as well. Where is the range? I would like to go and meet a few new people into shooting paper.

[Loon160T]

Most of us meet at the Krystal's in Winchester and then convoy up to the range. Here's a link for a map:

A big Thanks to Loon160t for his help with the range work today! Finished uo the work about 9:45 and then punched holes in the new backboards.

[Loon160T]

Here's a couple of pictures of the three new backboards and posts installed today:

at 50 feet

50 yards and 100 yards

The weather was nearly perfect. The wind was a nuisance but a good day nonetheless.

Ralph, the range owner, seemed to really appreciate TGO's efforts.
