Recovery Brief · Range Lights Incident
On the evening of November 4th, 1979, activity was observed across the full eastern perimeter of the grounds. By morning, eight items had been recovered from various locations between Hole 9 and the broadcast tower. Each has been cataloged, assigned a specimen number, and cleared for distribution through the Pro Shop. The club makes no claims regarding their origin.
