Range Rules PDF Print E-mail
Written by Admin   

Our policy is to introduce members to these rules when they join our club. Range safety briefings will be given on the 1st and 2cd Tuesday of each month.

We rely on each member's integrity and good judgment to follow these rules.This is particularly important when more than one member is shooting.

Please review these rules from time to time.

If any changes need to be made please contact the range committee chairman, Tom McGurl or the executive board for consideration. Let's do our part to have the best range operation in the area.

Special note: NO ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES ALLOWED ON THE RANGE
