NRA Range Safety Officer
About a year and a half ago, we held a class at the club for people to
obtain their NRA Range Safety Officer training and certification. We
are wondering if we have more members who would like to see this class
return. If we can get enough people interested, we can invite Rochester
Personal Defense in for a repeat class. We had 12 of our members take
the class last time but some of these people have moved on and are no
longer members. We would like to see more of our members trained as
RSOs, it makes the club a safer place and the added input about safety
concerns helps keep us up to date on safety. You would have to spend
about $130-150 total to take a class and get your NRA certification and
$6 a year thereafter to maintain your credentials. If you would be
interested in a class, please use the "Contact Us" link at the left to
drop us a note.
Scouts Came To Shoot
We had Boy Scout Troop 25 from Verona in as guests on Monday, Dec. 19 for a troop shoot. The boys had a great time, we performed a good civic service, and promoted safe shooting all in one evening. Hopefully, more troops will accept our invitation to come and shoot on our range. Here are a few photos from Monday.
One Day Memberships
To obtain a
one day membership you must be accompanied by an annual or life member
who will be your sponsor and be responsible for your behavior while at
the club. The regular member may sponsor only one daily member at a time
and must remain with the day member at all times while at the club.
Fill out the form, have your sponsor sign it, put $5 with the form and
fold it up and slide it through the slot in the cover for the kitchen
counter. The slot is on the right side and is labeled. The one day
membership will allow you to shoot on the outdoor range while
accompanied by your sponsor member. Without a membership you are not allowed to shoot on the outdoor range. Please shoot safely and be courteous to other members. If you would like any further
information, use the "Contact Us" link at the left.
Steel Plates Has Returned
Steel plate shooting has returned for the season. We shoot each Thursday night from 6:30-8:30 PM. This shoot is for .22LR pistol, a match is 50 shots and costs $1 a match to shoot. The coffee is free, we draw for a nice door prize each week, and there is always good conversation. Come out and join us for a fun evening of shooting. This is not a league where you need to come every week, come out and shoot with us when you can. New shooters are always welcome and coached through their initial matches to be sure they have a fun and safe evening.
