Covered and lighted 100 yard range, a pistol range, 70 yard range, 500 yard range and a 600 yard range plus an area for over night camping area. Never done camping but I would like to try it over a weekend this summer on the range.
I mainly use the 100, 70 and pistol ranges but this summer I would like to try the 600 yard range.
Members are great and everyone is an RSO (every member must do a safety walk before that allowed on the range). If you see unsafe firearm handling then speak up or report to the CRSO.
You must bring into the range anything you may need when shooting and then take everything with you when you leave (including trash). Anything includes targets, stands, ammo etc.
All for a yearly fee of $60. You must be an NRA member to join. You also do need to put in 100 hours of work on the range over 3 years to become full member but I think it's worth it.
That sounds really good.
Anything else required to join, i.e. current member sponsor?
If so, did I ever mentioned how much I enjoy your posts?
Good question Dutz.
A current member in good standing with the club must sponsor any new associate members. Associate members are new members with less then 100 hours of service. The sponsor member and the new associate member must attend a signup meeting at the same time and complete a safety walk. A safety walk normally takes about 1 1/2 hours.
Hmmm...this place looks familiar. This is where I qual'd for Marksman with the Navy back in the 90s. I should check it out. I remember being in the trench lifting targets on a hot day! What's the best way to get a sponsor; go and meet in person. ?How's that usually work?
