This work party is required to bring the range within city code requirements.  Your assistance is needed and greatly appreciated.

Hello Archers of San Diego!

Please join us for a work party on 26 July at Morley Field.  We will focus on bringing the range within city code requirements so we can keep it open to the public.

Start time is early (before it gets too hot): 7:00 a.m. (or as early as you can make it)

Supplies & tools (If you have them, we appreciate it when you can bring your own but will have a limited amount available if you don’t.)

  • Facial covering to adhere to the social distancing.  We expect everyone can maintain the six foot separation but if you can’t we ask that you wear a mask.  Thank you!
  • Gloves and eye protection
  • Recommend long pants and long sleeve shirts
  • Sunblock

We’ll be picking up debris that was cleared between the old and new fence lines, old bale material, branches, rocks, etc….

Make sure you get your name on the sign up list so we can give you credit for being at the work party.  We’ve also got some other great ideas to entice your participation!

 

Thanks everyone!  We really appreciate your help.

2) “Fan”: Each arrow shot from a different marked stake spread in a fan pattern, with each stake at the same distance to the target.

3) “Walk-Up”: Each arrow shot from a different marked stake at decreasing distances to the target. For example, one arrow each at 45, 40, 35, 30 yards, or two arrows each at 45 and 40 yards.

This work party is required to bring the range within city code requirements.  Your assistance is needed and greatly appreciated.

Hello Archers of San Diego!

Please join us on 12 July for a work party.  It will focus on bringing the range within city code requirements so we can keep it open to the public.

Start time is early (before it gets too hot): 6:00 a.m. (or as early as you can make it) until about 11:00 a.m.

Supplies & tools (If you have them, we appreciate it when you can bring your own tools!)

  • Bring gloves and eye protection
  • Recommend long pants and long sleeve shirts
  • Sunblock

We’ll be clearing brush between the old and new fence lines, picking up old bale material, branches, rocks, etc… to smooth out the range and stage the material for disposal. There will be a second work party on Sunday, 26 July to remove the debris and load it into a dumpster for disposal.

A special thanks to Bill M. who has been keeping the range trimmed and to Dennis S. who has been working closely with the city and LEA to ensure we meet code. We have the best volunteers anywhere!

Thanks everyone! We really appreciate your help.
