Ranger Construction Repairs Plant
Damage After Emergency Road Work
(1st/2nd Quarter 2005)

Repairs are made to Ranger Central’s Ft.
Pierce, FL, asphalt plant, which suffered panel damage
during last year’s hurricanes. |

There’s never a great time to shut down a
busy asphalt plant for repairs. But when it’s hurricane wind
damage and another season is approaching, you do it anyway.
Last year’s hurricanes damaged the outer
panels on the storage silos and mixing drum at Ranger
Construction’s Fort Pierce, FL, plant. But busy production
schedules — including miles of emergency road repairs on Indian
River Drive in St. Lucie County (shown below)
and other roadways — prevented complete plant repairs until
earlier this year.
“We had to shut down for two weeks to
finish,” said Vice President Bob Schafer. “You hate to lose
production, but we also took care of a few other items to make the
most of the down time.”
Now that the repairs are finished, the plant
is back to its usual busy production schedule.
Ranger Central repaired miles of Indian River Drive
in St. Lucie County, FL, after last year’s hurricanes
destroyed the shoreline and shoulder and washed out
entire sections of roadway. Repairs included
placing boulders called “rip-rap” along the slope.

Ranger Golf is constructing two new golf courses and performing
major improvements at a third, all in Southern California.
The two new courses are located in Corona. Dos Lagos is an
18-hole course for Temescal Canyon Properties-8. Designed by Matt
Dye, Dos Lagos will play at about 7,000 yards and is scheduled for
completion this summer.
Ranger is also nearing completion on The Retreat, an 18-hole
course by Jack Nicklaus Design.
At Rams Hill Country Club in Borrego Springs, northeast of San
Diego, CA, Ranger is part of a major reconstruction project to
expand the existing 27 holes to 36. Ranger’s portion involves the
demolition and complete reconstruction of nine existing holes,
along with new construction of nine additional holes.
Also
in Corona, CA,
Ranger Golf built The Retreat, a beautiful,
championship-level course laid out by Jack Nicklaus Design.
