As last year we'll be working on having a nice pile of wood to cut in the same area. This year we'll be taking all of the wood from an area just to the right of the trap range as you come up the hill. The club is clearing an area of 150 ft X 80 ft to add another range. So it we don't have it all cleared by the GTG time we can continue clearing the land.
I haven't had a chance to look over the size of the tree's yet but I am sure we can get at least a few nice sized logs some where for guy's to play with the big saws.
The rules apply the same as last year.
1) Anyone who chooses to camp at the GTG site will be allowed to camp on the trap range. Porta potties and a wash station will be available. There is also spring water available that is constantly running for drinking and with a spigot to fill up bottles.
2) 4 wheelers and side by sides are welcome to get from place to place just respect the land and don't tear it up. Splitters are welcome to help with the splitting duties.
3) Adult drinks will be allowed in the GTG area only, after the work is done (evening hours) as long as it it discreet and doesn't get out of control.
4) You will be allowed to bring your rifles/ pistols to shoot for free if you are helping out and processing wood for the GTG . If you are not a PA resident and out of state and decide to bring a weapon of your choice to shoot that will be on you to check into the state rules and regulations for the transport and use of weapons across state line!
We would like to plan on another raffle. If you have anything that you would like to donate please send me a PM and I can start making up a raffle list.
Steve (SBK1980) and Tanya Becher are planning on donating a hand forged knife and a turned piece of wood work. They will also plan on having stuff there for sale as well
