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 [...]

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 [...]

If all goes right, the bathrooms should be up and running for Christmas. Mats with the AFGC logo have been put in Range 5 to show shooting [...]
Over all members did a great job of cleaning up after themselves in October. As the weather has changed a few have been leaving out target and not picking up casings, but to everyone else great job, thank you. The paving has been delayed due to the gas line explosion. Hopefully they can manage [...]
