Busy day pouring concrete at Central Okanagan Shotgun Sports Club
Today we put the finishing touches on the slab for the clubhouse phase I. This is the culmination of a lot of work on the part of our volunteers: digging for the foundation, compacting the foundation, building the frames, getting them in place then backfilling, bending and tying the rebar, setting up the frames for the sonotubes to support the posts at the front of the building and bending and tying more rebar. This was an exceptional effort on the part of our volunteers. Thanks you all for coming out and getting the job done with great results!








Great job gang!!
Clubhouse Phase I – Foundation

Paulo, Don, Tim, Bob, Greg and Pat.
While Pat was building the forms, Paulo, Don, Tim Bob and Greg were busy preparing the foundation. Paulo jr was also there to help deliver the crush but took off before we could record his presence. Thanks to Tyler Smith from Cascade Geotechnical for his geotech advise.
Phase 1 of the clubhouse will soon have the foundation in place . We will still need donations to get the roof on. To date we have raised $8,400 through the generosity of some of our members. A list of donors so far is available here. To make your donation please contact Pat Bare at pat.bare@yahoo.com and contribute to help us complete the initial phase.
