NO High Power Rifle Calibers Allowed on Pistol Ranges
In August 2006 one of our members
gratiously offered to build and install a heavy duty steel target
structure on Pistol range #1. This was installed in mid August and
partially destroyed within a week. 
Someone intentionally shot the target
steel plate full of holes from a high power rifle caliber at close
range...not once but a number of times.
Not only is this
hazardous to the shooter and anyone nearby given ricochet potential,
but is it in direct violation of club rules.
Anyone found to be destroying club property in this manner will immediately loose their membership and the club will pursue legal action if necessary.
DO NOT FIRE ANY HIGH POWER RIFLE CALIBERS ON PISTOL RANGES
Clays Throwers destroyed 6-7-2008
The Clays throwers purchased from Club member donations were destroyed in the June 7, 2008 flood. The Board of Directors has ageed to replace them with manual throwers mounted on posts for all to use in the near future. Look for them to be purchased and installed before the end on August 2009.
