How To Join 

Download the Membership Application Form  or pick one up at the club.  Complete the form and mail it to the Club Membership Committee.  The Membership Committee will review your application and invite you the next Executive Board Meeting (on the first Thursday of each month) for a brief interview.  Once approved, you will be scheduled to attend the Club & Safety Orientation Seminar to familiarize you with club facilities and ranges.   Bring a check for the membership fees.  Upon successful completion of the mandatory orientation you will be given a membership badge and key for the gate and club house locks, and you may begin using the club. 

Club & Safety Orientation

The Club & Safety Orientation includes a facilities orientation and instructions in Range Rules and General Safety Regulations.  Completion of this orientation seminar is mandatory for all new members prior to issuance of a membership badge.  This seminar is scheduled as required, and is open to invited applicants only.

The Orientation includes:

  • Club overview
  • Club Officer and a Board of Directors overview
  • Range Officer overview
  • Possible range closures during meets, shoots, and special events
  • Safety
  • Acknowledgement of receipt and understanding of the club by-laws and safety rules
  • Completion of the club disclaimer/liability waiver
  • Payment of 1st year dues

Indoor Pistol Range

The Indoor Pistol Range is for qualified club members only, club sanction shoots, and league shooting.

A member may qualify for use of this range by hitting a standard 50 foot target with five (5) consecutive shots that are witnessed by the Safety Committee Chairperson or his/her designee.  Upon successful demonstration of shooting proficiency, the member will be given an Indoor Range key. There is a daily use fee of $3.00 for each person using the Indoor Range.  The Club may waive this fee for club sanctioned shoots.

Family members of range qualified club members may also qualify for range use. The same qualification method will be used.  Once qualified, the family member will be issued a Pistol Range Badge and they may only use the range only when accompanied by the regular qualified member.  This pertains to both indoor rifle and/or pistol, and the card will be so marked to indicate the permitted use.
