The Operation Managers Reports on the upkeep, maintenance and progress of construction at the Abbotsford Fish and Game Club.
The ranges have been fairly busy in June, we are still seeing target stands left out and casings not picked up, but for the most part members are doing a decent job of cleaning up. Range 5 has seen a few issues. Members remember the steel target DO NOT GET MOVED, PERIOD. They are [...]
The June 9thwork bee went ahead and we had 5 members attend. It was a very productive day. We painted the exterior of Range 5 and Range 3. Dan did up hotdog on the bbq for lunch. We hope the members had a good day. The next scheduled work bee is on August 11. Dan Ashton [...]
The City paved the road, once they finished we place gravel at the entrances to protect the edges. May was grass month. We prepped the lawn outside of range 2 and sodded it. We also prepped and sodded inside Range 2B. In between time we lacquered the washroom step and added a non- slip powder [...]
There was a special work bee called for Friday May 10 & 11 to remove and replace the backer on range one. It worked out well we managed to finish fairly early on both day. Thank you to Scott M. for the welding and to all the other volunteers. The regular May 12 work bee [...]
The Wednesday workbee did not have any participants in April. There will be an indoor workbee to rebuild the backstop on Friday May 10th starting at noon and going until late (so come at 7 if you can't come earlier) and then on Saturday May 11th we will start at 9 or 10 am. We [...]
April had an Archery shoot and a multi gun shoot. We would like to thank both groups for their clean-up efforts, it is greatly appreciated Range 5 received a shooting shed. Walk way paving was finished. New Port-a-potties where placed and the old ones removed. We started making a cabinet in Range 1 for [...]
March was mostly cleanup & repairs, as well as the opening of Range 2B. We had a run on members breaking the drop down table handles, in some cases snapping them right off the tables. 6 handles had to be replaced in March, PLEASE if you are unsure how to put down the tables or [...]

We are not unhappy to see February end. It has been an event filled month. At the first of the month we lost power for about 12 hrs, causing the new washroom to freeze up, leading to a 5 day closure for us to get it thawed and operational, luckily with minimum repairs required. We [...]
January was fairly busy. We started with finishing off the kitchen renovation. The bobcat was delivered, it works great. Archery was underwater for a couple days. We had to hook up the sump pump to remove the water. The new bathroom septic was emptied. It looks like 3 weeks will be the schedule. The removable [...]
Another year has come and gone. We had a busy December. The ranges were very busy over the Christmas break with most people taking care to clean up. However we still have a few individual who are very rough with the fold down tables. One had the top torn right off. These tables work [...]
