ABSTRACT:
A combination lawn debris receptacle-target apparatus for facilitating the accumulation, collection, and bagging of outdoor debris and which coverts to a recreational target comprises: a rear frame structure; a front guide-holder structure; a front wheel-support structure; and a plurality of joint locations for connecting adjacent elements of the apparatus. In particular, the rear frame structure includes: rear, central lower, and side upper and lower straight members; the guide-holder structure includes: upper and lower connecting straight members, and side U-shaped members; the wheel-support structure includes: a lower straight member and wheels at the ends of such lower straight member; and the plurality of joint locations includes: means for mutually connecting ends or other portions of apparatus members. The joint locations are such that the rear ends of the central lower straight members may move axially and may rotate relative to the rear straight member; and the front ends of the central lower straight members may be disconnected whereby the lawn debris receptacle configuration may be converted to the recreational target configuration. A feature of the present invention is that the rear frame structure side lower and central lower straight members provide both structural support and debris weight support; and that the guide-holder structure provides structural support, means for guiding the debris in the forward direction, and means for removably attaching the bag to the apparatus.
