i think it would be good if as many people as possible contact the mayor, parks and the range master and  and thank them for trying to make the process go as smoothly as possible
it would also be a good time to voice concerns with range safety, improvements, and other issues you may have now that a focus has been put on the park
i know things didn't go as quickly as we would have liked, but now that we are back up and running, we cannot just be happy with restoration of the range hours
we need to offer to help the city make KHSC better and safer for all

what say you all?

Very good idea to voice appreciation for the expediency of the repairs.

Thanking the Mayor and Parks Director is a great idea!

As far back as the election (when Caldwell was elected) many folks questioned Caldwell's dedication to shooters, calling that support an election ploy. I think his push to repair the range, and expedite those repairs, shows how dedicated he really is.

The mayor kept his word in getting it open quick as possible.   If you know anything about government projects this was very fast..even with all the issues that came up. 
Thank you to the mayor, the city council,  mike, macsak and all others involved

IMO the subject line should not be a question.  This is a must.  Take some time out of your busy day and show your appriciation.  I do think that those of us that utilize the Rifle range are quite lucky that the repairs and restoration was done in such a timely manner.  Let our gratitude be known.

My email example:

Mayor,

I would like to take some time to show my gratitude for your efforts in expeditiously completing the restoration to the Kokohead Rifle Range.  Your dedication to the 2A and shooting/hunting community is undeniable and keeping your word in regards to the Kokohead Shooting Complex is a true testament of your moral values.  Your dedication does not go unnoticed.  Thank you very much.  Hope you have a wonderful day!  Aloha!

Very Respectfully,

Totally agree 

Thanks ImKu for the sample text and email addresses. I just sent my "mahalo" emails.

I don't often agree with Caldwell, but you've got to give credit where credit is due. Even though it took a little longer than we all hoped, this was done pretty quickly. I hope more 2a members will follow the suggestion and send a big mahalo to show your appreciation.

I also let them know the great job the RSO's do of making it a safe environment.

Done, thanks for the reminder.

Just told my friend who sees the Mayor pretty much every day that a lot of people are very grateful for the quick turnaround.

This weekend I was at the check out line behind the Mayor at Longs Drugs Manoa.  I shook his hand and personally thanked him for his support to the firearms/shooting community, the expedited improvements and for reopening KHSC.  He greeted me "Kung Hei Fat Choy" and acknowledged our appreciation.  He also mentioned that he plans for C&C, KHSC and the firearms/shooting community to work together as a whole to plan and care for KHSC.

The Mayor is a very down to earth gentleman who expresses his Aloha spirit.
