Handicap ramps at gun club

Today, 12 of us at our shooting club, installed handicap ramps for our rifle ranges. We have three hundred members and most of us are getting older now. A few guys in wheelchairs and walkers, that couldn't get up to the shooting platforms, asked me if we could install some ramps, so they could shoot. The executive board approved the purchase of these ramp, and I found them on Facebook market place for a 1,000 bucks. I think new they are around 4,000 a piece. They are slip resistant and weatherproof. Hopefully these gentlemen can now go enjoy themselves and get some more range time in. These were the members that built this club up and dedicated many years to the continued growth of the club. Some of these guys are in their 80's and 90s. We even have one member that will be celebrating his 101 birthday this year. The range was dedicated in his name last year at his 100 birthday. Oakie
