the numbers — total economic input — 2012 4 million — 2013 5 million — 20 or whatever it is — total of ten days - anyway, you can read it. Those were some of the sources that we get for to operate — if you're gonna build a shooting facility you gotta start thinking about how you're gonna operate it. But there's money available — you got to go after it. There is where we were and this is again 2015 and it's where we still are today — we supplied some petitions in the form of local people signing up — we're at a standstill — it's now more than 12 years. What we need in order to move forward a commitment for development — strong effective leadership — a long term funding plan — and ongoing community support. And On -Target, Inc. of which I no longer am a part — I was the founder and made the place but I've retired but On -Target will provide expert technical assistance — maintain... Well, you can read it all... There's what we like to see... Just says On -Target is the blah, blah, blah, non-profit — there's some of the people in our organization — a lot of certifications — NRA certification — 2 former police officers — professional gunsmith — blah, blah, blah — so that's On -Target and I think the last line is just Board of Directors which is now [unclear]. So there we are, we're done... Any questions? AA: Thanks, Richard. Anybody from the public or any commissioners have any questions for Richard? TN: This is Teresa from the public. Could I ask a question? Hi... Thank you for all your folk's efforts — I know you folks all worked hard on On -Target and I know some of the people there. My question is — when you get the sound studies — will the facility be a 24/7 facility — open 24 hours? RH: I don't think so. Maybe some of the venues — I can imagine one or two venues possibly — but again, there's a number of shooting venues in there - put up the list — it's not an all contiguous shooting facility. You travel from one venue to another. If you want to go trap shooting you go here — skeet shooting you go there — sporting plays here — high power rifles here. TN: My question was will the facility be open 24 hours? RH: I would doubt it.
