Tuesday Meeting - What You May Have Missed
President Helen
Humber motions for immediate nominations for
anyone wanting to run for three open seats
and the presidency as well. Helen Humber
wished to remain as President and therefore
announced her candidacy. Bobby White was
announced as a nominee for Vice President.
Randy Pipes announced for Treasurer and Jim
Standridge for Secretary. Since no one
announced or was otherwise nominated for any
of these positions, a motion was made to
bundle the vote and seconded. The vote was
held and by unanimous decision all four
candidates were elected to the offices they
announced for.
Old Business:
-
The sidewalk
down the middle of the rifle range has
been completed to the 50 yard mark. The
remaining 50 yards will be poured before
the end of the week.
-
The fence
was restored where it was torn down.
-
Double lock
will remain on the main gate till 9/15,
to get the new key you must pay your
dues and turn in your old key.
New Business:
-
A plaque is
being made for distinguished service to
the club and will be presented during
the
September meeting.
-
Odie is
looking for a member that has a portable
welding rig to do some much needed
maintenance to the plate racks.
-
A member
brought up some dissatisfaction over the
range being tied up too much on the
weekends by matches and CCW classes.
Suggestion was made to make a new sign
that does note state the “Range Is
Closed”... but rather states that
“Training is in session”, and “please
see the range master”. That should help
with some of the problem.

8-16-10: Double
Lock In Place
As always, the Gun Club
Range will be double locked
from Aug 15 to Sept 15. You
will be able to access the
range with either a #6 key
or a #2 key. When you pay
your 2010/2011 dues you will
turn in the #6 key and
receive a #2 key. For those
not familiar with
the concept of double
locking - check the photo
(right) for the proper
configuration. Historically
someone will mess up the
system. When this happens
please call Randy Pipes at
903-277-0553 or Richard
Humber at 903-824-8221 and
we will come out and fix it.
Thanks
Helen Humber
TGC President

Work Work, Work Work Work...
Targets don't
just happen, they're manufactured, one at a
time. Richard Humber has dedicated a number
of hours this week to resupply our rifle

them, but please try not to shoot the wood
frame.
