From San Diego California: More info at www.CarrizoCreekRange.Org For those who are as passionate about their Second Amendment rights, environment, and preservation of multi-use public land as we are, this volunteer opportunity is FOR YOU! If you have not noticed, open land to shoot on, our public land, is dwindling at an alarming rate. From La Posta to Kitchen Creek, we have been loosing hundreds of acres of land per year. All of this is because of a few reasons - a couple of them we have 100% control over: - Safety Issues - Littering Safety Issues: OBSERVE your weapon safety rules. They are really simple and effective. Littering: DONT DO IT YOURSELF. If you bring targets out to our public lands, bring them home with you! Its that simple. In addition – police each other. This is your land just as much as it is my land. Doing just these two things can, from this day forward, preserve our public lands. As for those lands we are using now, which are in IMMEDIATE DANGER of being closed to the public... We can prevent the closure of these places by taking PROACTIVE steps to protect them. Out highway 8 lies about 20 acres of BLM land (Bureau of Land Management) which is 100% open to the public and has been utilized as a range by shooters for years because of its great location and terrific terrain features. Unfortunately, for every 100 users ofthis land, there are the 10% who are not responsible and have caused a severe build up of trash which could possibly cause the range to be closed off to the public. As you are aware, this has happened in the past; unfortunately there was no one to be proactive and prevent the closure process before it started. WE CAN BE PROACTIVE AND PRESERVE THIS RANGE!!! How you can help: - Equipment such as tractors (we need a "bobcat" still) Your financial contribution and sponsorships can help us fund the rental of this needed asset. - Sponsorships - Many opportunities for businesses, organizations or individuals that can BENEFIT YOU & US in many ways! - Labor - 200+ people are needed for the 2 day clean up which will go down in the Spring - Exposure - Pass the word!!! After asking yourself ask the indoor range you shoot at, and the shops you patronize, what they are doing to help this cause.
