Bonus Work Party Mar 2015 Thank You
THANK YOU, thank you, Thank You,
THANK YOU!!
Archery would not exist in Balboa Park without the hard work of volunteers who love archery. If you love the sport of archery and enjoy shooting at the Balboa or Morley Ranges, please come join us at a future work party to help maintain these incredible archery ranges. Non-members are welcome, too!
March BONUS Work Party Wrap Up
A HUGE THANK YOU to the volunteers who worked so hard at the BONUS Work Party on Saturday, Mar 28: Chad, Carlos, Doug, Dorian, Pat, Fred, Allison, Melissa, Larry, Dana and Patty. Dead branches, trees and brush were dragged into piles, Target 20 (under the bridge and other shooting lanes were cleared, and many loads of old logs were hauled to the dump. Carlos will be bringing in a chipper soon and pulverizing the piles of dead debris, which will be spread throughout the range for mulch. We still have a long list to do before the King Arthur Tournament on June 21st, but we are making great progress! The Balboa Range hasn’t looked this good in YEARS! Thank you, everyone!
