As cooler weather approaches, I
start to think about the changing of the seasons. Where before we were in
lawn mowing season, painting season, outdoor repair season, etc., now we are
moving into log splitting and wood stacking season, fire tending season, indoor
range clean up season, and (@#$%) snow plowing season. The club is
thinking about churning through the chore list, and making sure that the
facilities are kept up to snuff. I would like to ask the membership for
help with these ongoing chores, as well as the occasional project that pops up
from time to time.
Not that all the
chores are physical labor. We could really use someone who knows how to
write grant applications. Keeping the club calendar up to date is another
area where we could use some help, as well as lending a hand with the
newsletter and other paperwork.
What we are asking
for are names of people who would be willing to donate a couple of hours a
month to help out with some of the various work bees and ongoing chores that
need to get done at the club. Plowing, range clean ups,
tending the fire in the indoor range, stacking firewood, things like that.
Bigger projects would need bigger groups of people, but we still would
need volunteers.
We would like to
keep a list of names that we can call when these tasks come up. This way,
we can call folks who we know are interested in helping, and we can try to
rotate the calls so we don’t always wind up with the same 4 or 5 people being
called all the time.
So, if you would be
willing to donate a couple of hours of your time, please send us a note.
