Range Purchase Club Officers Berryman and McCoy are engaged in ongoing correspondence with BLM regarding the Club s intent to purchase the Virtue Flat Range. The Club s policy (approved by majority vote) is that no members should engage in communication with BLM about eventual purchase of the range without first attending regular Club meetings and gaining approval of Club officers. Gate Lock Reminders The proper way to operate the gate lock is as follows: 1 - Dial the current combination code into the lock. 2 - Depress the shackle into the lock body, then pull the lock open. 3 - Go through the gate, close it behind you, re-fasten the chain. 4 - Depress and hold the shackle down in the lock body, spoil the combination number, then release the shackle and give it a tug to make sure it is locked. We have discovered through repeated experience that the lock function does not improve when frustrated members beat on it. Help Keep the Range Clean! If You pack it in, then You pack it out. We don t have a litter removal service.
