Twor hours of your time means helping your club with our youth program, any other match or attend one of the quarterly range workdays. Four times a year we hold a range workday, this is how we maintain the club facilities. We provide plenty of cold water & Gatorade. Workdays are held on months that have 5 Saturdays. They are on the 5th Saturday from 8:00am to 10:00am. Any match director or board member can award the $80.00 work credit for specific tasks such as assisting with a scheduled match or working on special tasks. We only require that you attend 1 workday to earn the $80.00 work credit, but we encourage you to attend as many as your time and health permit. Member involvement makes this club run. If everyone puts a little in, everyone will get a lot in return.
