Another sunny day, temperatures around 18C (68F) just right for Woody who was busy cleaning up the park, gathering and hauling garbage, power washing the buildings and all the other duties required to keep the park in tip top condition. Aluminum cans plastic and glass bottles in our recycle bins are donated to the Onoway School Recycle Program and were picked up and Josie came with her son-in-law to return the tables to the Education Centre at the Gun Range as well as pick up the last food from the fridges. While here Josie and I went over the campsite schedule to make sure we both had the same information (some people call Josie to reserve instead of calling the park phone) so we must check with each other regularly.
Later Woody took a break and went with a friend shooting at the Range which he really enjoyed, first time this year he has tried out his gun, I was glad he decided to go, he needed the break. Actually there was an incident at the Gun Range earlier today, a person reported to Woody that they saw some fellows crawling over the fence into the Range, so he went down immediately and found the group sitting outside the Range in their car drinking; when they saw Woody approaching they sped off in their car, he called the police and reported the incident, the police take these type incidents very seriously, illegal entry to the Range and drinking while driving, they thanked him, shouldn’t be to difficult to track them down with the license number of their car and 3 witnesses to the incident. Woody is the Range Officer for the Gun Range as he was last year and the police had instructed him how to handle incidents at the Range and the Park, many of the police officers use the range to practice so are very interested in keeping the range open and of course there are those persons that are always trying to get the range shut down. The Park is a short distance from the Range and if anyone is shooting at the range we can hear it so Woody will go down and make sure all the rules are being followed, it is surprising how many members ignore some of the rules and this year the club decided that there would be zero tolerance for infractions, new members must take a Range Safety Course before they receive a key to the Range, both measures were put in place to make sure all members can safely use and enjoy the Range.
Woody visited with Dave at his camper for awhile after returning from the Range and we spent the rest of evening quietly.
The ramblings of our life as RVer’s camp hosting in Alberta, Canada and travelling to Arizona for the winter with some pics and history of some areas we have visited.
