[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Fire mission for Local Range.

Posted: 8/9/2014 9:17:47 PM EDT

Guys and Girls located in Hendersonville NC we need your support.

We have been shooting 3 gun matches at a local range for almost a year now, unfortunately a local gated community is trying to shut it down. Right now the range is in the process of receiving the permits and will have a hearing before the Board on August the 27th at 4:00. Anyone who can make it out and show there support would be greatly appreciated.

These guys have been putting on a very safe and fun match, you wont find a better group of guys or a nicer place to shoot. This area has needed something like this for a long time and its a shame that it might get shut down if we don't stand up.

Edit to add: The Meeting will be held at the Old Historic Court House in Hendersonville.

Bump from out of town. Hopefully you guys have a great turnout.

Another bump to keep it at the top.

If anyone can make it to the meeting, it would be greatly appreciated. We would like lots of warm bodies there to show support for the range. The county has been supportive so far, but this hearing will be a battle with the antis and it could go either way. It's a relatively small group that is opposing the range, so we hope to overwhelm the board with people who stand with us.

Good luck! Please keep us informed so we can attend any future meetings to show our support. We need to preserve our local ranges here in NC!

Round 2 was continued, and round 3 will be Tuesday, September 16th at 4 PM the same location (historic courthouse in Hendersonville).

Hopefully this will be the final hearing.

If anyone is available to attend, please do! They had more numbers than us at the second hearing and the media picked up on that fact.

We would love to pack the house with supporters and show everyone that the range has the support of the community.

They voted to shut it down.

Thanks to everyone who showed up and supported, guess we will be driving out of town to shoot 3 gun now.
