Range Closed – lightning strike damage!

Range Closed – lightning strike damage!

Sorry for the inconvenience, but the range is closed temporarily.  A recent lightning strike fried the electronics in our gate opener.  Of course, we can’t just leave the gate open….. so we are scrambling to get the parts to restore functionality to the gate controller. Yesterday Eric G was kind enough to hang around the range all day and let people in….. but that is too much to ask for a volunteer.  So, we are working on a solution to…
