The deal was that we, who are trained to run them, could use them as long as there was no one scheduled to use them. I was told that there are some members who had staked a claim to the new ranges and refused to yield when one of the high school teams showed up to use it at their scheduled time.
So a couple of bad apples ruined it for the rest of us.
Maybe, or the story you heard was a fabrication or over exaggeration by those who do not want the members to be able to use the equipment. I have no knowledge of this situation one way or the other, however I have experienced the attitude of those in charge of the trap equipment. They are already prejudiced against anyone who is a member so it does not take them much to determine that restrictions need to be in place and I have heard some "embellish" stories before.
Not trying to be negative, seriously I am not. But the email for the VP is apparently working again now but when you email him he just replys to your email with a blank response so you get your message back with nothing. Not sure if there is a training issue on how to use email there or what but I gotta say I am frustrated.
