NOTE: There is no phone at the range. In case of emergency, members should call 911 from a cell phone. If an ambulance is required, someone will need to unlock the gate. Report any incidents to a Club officer ASAP.

Please!
ALWAYS LOCK THE GATE BEHIND YOU WHEN YOU ENTER AND WHEN YOU LEAVE THE RANGE.

  1. All safety rules must be obeyed! KEEP ACTION OPEN, AND MUZZLE POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION. All firearms must be removed from the bench and placed in the rifle racks when shooters are downrange. Always check with all other shooters before you walk downrange to change targets. Communicate your intentions with other shooters.
  1. If a club member is acting as Range Officer (RO), his commands must be obeyed promptly. Range officers are utilized at events (such as Hunter’s Sight-In). Prior to the event, officers will attend a brief refresher session on range and safety rules, led by the event’s organizer. Only experienced members will be eligible for a range officer position. New members wishing to serve as a RO will be mentored and supervised by an experienced RO.
  1. If a club member should bring a guest, he will be responsible for the conduct of this guest. CLUB MEMBERS HAVE FIRST RIGHT TO THE SHOOTING BENCHES. Your guest will share your table.
