At a recent dinner some RSOs received awards for their service to the range. The highest honor went to the esteemed Mr. Hubert (Bubba) Cummins. Bubba has become a very familier face at the

People wonder how becoming and RSO can change their life on and off the range. Well look above at just one of our RSOs - Jerry P.. When he first became and RSO he was tired, no confidence, a sloppy dresser, and spoke like the God Father.

Now look at the after picture of Jerry - a snappy dresser, confident, has tons of energy, and when he talks he sounds like, . . . . well he still sounds like the God Father but 3 out of 4 ain't bad.

Well if you all were not aware the other half of the range staff has been out on medical leave then continue reading. Our buddy Danny (Asst. Range Mgt.) had some knee surgery that has given him a little trouble in getting back to work. Danny also suffered a personal loss with the death of his father a couple of weeks ago.

We want to keep Danny in our prayers during his time of recovery and with the loss of his dad. Hopefully he will be able to get back to work soon once he is cleared by his doctor.

Get well soon Danny!

Besides his hours at the range Bubba is quick with a smile and very happy to be of service to his fellow RSOs or range clients. Pictured to the right with Bubba is our Range Manager Tim T. (Range Mgt.) congratulating him for his service.

Another person awarded

Besides a lot of good eating the RSOs in attendence enjoyed some off the range time together.

Again congrats Bubba and Joe.

The RSOs are a group of avid shooters who not only strive for excellence on the range but are committed to long term service - many in our association have been serving the range since it's opening. Anytime an RSO passes the year mark as a volunteer they have proven their ability to commit to a worth while activity of serving others in the shooting sport. We thank both Dave and Curly for there continued service and dedication to the range and it's customers.

Thanks guys.

RSOs are the life blood that help keep the Stone River Range safe and open. With that said it is great see so many new faces at the range. Above are several new RSOs who have been certified and are doing their part to keep our shooters safe and coming back to enjoy this premiere shooting facility. The association and TWRA thank you for joining our group.
