Here's the deal-

Saturday, Dec. 5th, I reserved the Provo City range for the day for my family.  The whole thing, dawn to dusk.  It's in my name, but anyone from here is welcome to come up, OC is, of course, just fine.  You will need to supply your own targets, eyes, ears, etc.

Bring whoever you want whenever you want, pack a lunch, bring your barbecue or dutch ovens if you want, etc. Bring chairs if it's warm enough to sit and visit, that kind of stuff.  Just a family friendly range day.

The only things we need to abide by:

1.  NO GLASS TARGETS

2.  NO ALCOHOL

3.  We will be following the 4 rules.

4.  Everyone on or near the firing line needs eyes and ears, so make sure you bring enough to cover your group.

5.  No shotguns are to be fired at the city's target backers, it tears them up too badly.

6. The skeet and trap ranges belonging to the Provo gun club are not part of the Provo city range proper, and as such are off limits to us unless they are holding a meet and will allow us to pay and participate that day.

I also posted this over at http://www.wethearmed.com and http://www.thehighroad.org .  So I'm expecting a decent sized turn out.  Let's just make sure we do it SAFELY, eh?

There is one shotgun position on the berm west of the pistol range if anyone wants to bring a thrower. There is a post to mount a mechanical thrower or you can use a hand thrower. It isn't a big space but can accommodate 2 or 3 shooters at a time.

SGTJensen, what restaurant were you thinking of? If it is the one between 100 and 200 North on 200 West (behind Zion's Bank), it has closed.

Also, did you reserve both the rife and pistol ranges?

Edit: spelling

No, it is the I Buffet (International Buffet) between ShopKo and Movies 8.  Lunch is $6.99, and Dinner is $9.99.
