We continue to seek adult volunteers to help build a covered spectator area at the Yard's Creek Scout Reservation rifle range.  This structure will be attached to the existing rifle range and will provide a sheltered area for family members, fellow Scouts, and guests who are observing the shooting sessions.

Construction skills ranging from basic labor to skilled craftsmen are needed.  Come to work, learn, and have fun, all while creating a great facility for our Scouts, family members, adult Scouters, and guests. 

DATE:     The next work dates are  July 9^th  and  10^th.  All work weekends will start at  9:00 A.M.  and end at  5:00 P.M.

WORK  PLANNED  FOR   July 9th  and  10^th:     Adult volunteers will prepare holes for concrete footings and a form for a concrete pad for a  60'  x  14'  spectator area under the leadership of professional builders.  Materials will be on site, but volunteer tools are still needed.   These are:  shale bars,  picks,  shovels,  steel rakes, post hole diggers and  wheelbarrows.   Please mark your equipment for ease in identification.

Volunteers are requested to bring their own lunches and beverages.

FUTURE  WORK  PLANS:     The second weekend of each month will be set for constructing the post and beam system,  trusses,  sheathing,  fascia,  and  roofing.  These are:   August 13-14;  September 10-11;  October 8-9;      November 12-13.

REGISTRATION:     Please register in advance for all weekends and to be notified of plans for future weekends by e-mailing  Mike  Darcy  at:   DarcyMJD@Gmail.com.    Your registration will be confirmed, and you will be entered on an e-mail list so you may be contacted with further details.
