JCSSA Members:
It is time for your membership renewal for 2025. Your complete renewal package must be in my hands on or before December 31st (postmarked) to avoid your membership becoming delinquent. If your membership becomes delinquent and is postmarked between January 1st and January 31st, 2025, you will be charged a late fee of $50.00 in addition to your regular renewal fee. Please plan ahead and avoid delinquency. If I do not receive your membership renewal before January 31st your membership will be terminated. Instructions for renewal and a blank renewal form can be found at the top of this page under "downloads".
I want to thank all members on behalf of the Board for the support and sportsmanship they have shown this year. We have made improvements to the facility, which as you can tell, greatly improved access in and out of the range and has eliminated most of the messy, muddy problems encountered when it rains. Also, some new shooting benches have appeared. Thank you to the person who donated them, we really needed to replace some of the old worn-out benches.
I have heard rumblings that the fiber backstops are not holding up well. The range goes through a lot of backerboard every year and if any of you have a better suggestion that is also economical, let me know. The old conveyor belt worked the best but has gotten scarce and if we can get some will need a work party to cut it up. We have tried plywood, but it is more expensive and doesn’t hold up well either. Somewhere out there must be a better solution. Think about it and let me know if you come up with anything.
Please remember to check the website now and then for events that may tie up the range for short periods of time.
There has been a bit of a problem with trash on the ground. Please do your part to keep the range neat and clean and use the trash cans.
Next month at the General Membership Meeting (October 9th) will be nominations for the Officers for 2025. You can contact me if you want to make a nomination and are unable to attend the meeting. Offices to be elected are President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer and one Director at Large. To qualify, nominees must be active in the club, (defined as having attended at least half of the monthly meetings or request waiver from the Board).
