Welcome to our beautiful and beloved club. Please help us keep it that way by picking up after yourself and taking your trash home with you.

You carried it in, so you carry it out.

The good folks who volunteer their time to mow should not have to stop and pick up debris that could damage the mower or otherwise be thrown by the mower.

York, would constitute a felony, and further provided that the pistols
or revolvers are transported unloaded in a locked opaque container

registration card. Such documentation shall constitute prima facie
evidence of exemption, providing that such person also has in his

a firearm by a person previously convicted of a felony or crimes which
