Monthly Fun Shoot and Range Orientation

If you are a new member interested in learning how to safely use the ranges or a not so new member looking for a refresher course please come out for a morning of instruction and fun. Or if you're just simply looking for an excuse to leave the family behind and do some shooting, this is your chance. Feel free to bring all your toys to share and get other's introduced to various firearms. And of course bring neighbors, friends and other non-member guests. This is a great opportunity to give them a good introduction into our facilities and to encourage them to join. Please note that the rifle range fun shoot is open only to member's and member's guests; however, the skeet range fun shoot is completely open to the public. So once again tell your friends to join us at the skeet range as a way to recruit more members.

The Fun Shoot Orientations (not the new member orientation) for both ranges will begin at 8:45 am and throughout the morning as needed. The shooting starts at 9:00am.
