    Ok, was there a massive construction like, highway project out there? NavTeQ Imaging is showing a lot of unfinished work and some construction equipment. It looks in the middle of nowhere and still passable by the work jeep or some fun times in my cavalier. Big problem is, I have no clue when the images were taken. Like basically no bloody road exists and theres an unfinished exit or something from the airport thats still in wireframe stage.

    From the rocks, go to 60 towards the airport, take the interchange (turnpike ) i think its 576 and exit at bavington, .50 cent toll, then turn right and go to the club, from Ambridge, it was a 35 min drive.

    As for the club info phone ans such, I know th ephone # is the same it was, 2006-7 cards will be respected til 2008... that is the green card, call in advance, he told me weekends, tues wed possibly, then friday ...

    I would need some head banging, I was proposed some thing today, and I need to know what people would think... maybe a meet some place with old members

    Skuggi,

    That's the way I used to go. Midway/Mcdonald exit. 2 quick lefts, Old Steubenville to Robinson Church to King,

    I know that roadwork is complete. I drove home that way.

    I haven't been on the new connector (576) coming from airport but Frenchy must have gone that way from Ambridge.

    Frenchy, Tex said I just missed you.

    I called Tex at the ph # I posted and got through. He said I could come shoot but asked when I was coming

    Great!

    Now, since I'm getting a bit confused with the site still saying it's closed and I havent seen any advertising.

    Is this open to new members yet? Or what exactly is going on up there? Do they have day passes or do you have to join up for a year? or anything like that?


    I'm hoping the prices are around what I saw last time, where I believe they had day fees or you could get a year or so and that was pretty cheap.

    I just got back from GPGC. I talked to Tex around noon today on the phone, but he wasn't around when I got there. The range looks just like it always has, it was great to be back. As a bonus, on this trip I brought two new shooters to the range, we all had a good time and look forward to going back often.
