INDOOR PISTOL/.22 RIFLE RANGE The indoor range is for the use of QUALIFIED MEMBERS and Guests only! The indoor range is open from 8:00 A.M. until 10:00 P.M. 7 days a week. Access to the range is restricted and access is granted through your security card. Any misuse of the facilities will be cause for temporary suspension of privileges or permanent revocation of membership. The condition of the range should be examined and documented upon arrival by each member.
REMEMBER - OUR club is OUR responsibility to take care of.
Be sure to pick up your brass in your station and behind you. If someone else neglects this, please be a good member and pick up that brass as well. The brass on the range itself is not required to picked up after each shooting. If alone and have time when it is safe, a member can (but not required to) clean up the brass on the range itself. That can be cleaned up periodically when convenient and safest for the members.
Please do not leave your targets on the hangers when you leave. Make sure all used targets are either stacked with the other used ones or put in the trash.
Please be sure all duds are put safely in the dud box. If the dud box is getting full a call to one of the officers is needed to ensure it is safely and properly emptied.
If you see the trash needs emptying or a mess needs to be picked up it would be greatly appreciated by all members if you would do this. Trash day is Tuesday, and it would be nice if members could bring the trash out if needed before then.
We are dedicated to our recycling program so please be sure to put all paper targets in the blue recycling bin and DO NOT throw them in the trash. Also, we have a box in the corner of the club room dedicated to our soda can recycling. Please throw all empty cans in that box and NOT in the trash can.
Please be sure to turn off the lights, exhaust fans, and electric heaters before you leave. Our furnace heat works on the timer and does not require you to turn the furnace off with the switch. Please do not shut this heat off. If any major issues need to be addressed with the facilities, please call one of the officers immediately to report the issue. The numbers are on the wall by the phone.
In addition to the club rules, we would like our members, guests, and the general public to be versed in the NRA Gun Safety Rules and the NRA Parent's Guide to Gun Safety. The links below will point you to the NRA website for these important guidelines.
