WRPC and member news.

Wildlife on the Range

There have been recent sightings of bears- black ones and brown ones-  wandering through the various shooting range areas . Generally, they mind their own business and stick to the perimeter of the cleared range area, however extra care is required when getting ready to shoot at the long range rifle range as the animals can be hidden in the brush.

Members are reminded that all animals on the range are protected – we are still inside City limits! Do not shoot near them in attempts to scare them off. Call a cease fire and wait for them to move away. Also, remember to put any food waste directly into the dumpster so as to not attract these characters onto the firing line areas.

Take your time and scan the line before you start to shoot.

Request for Tender

Are you a professional contractor or do you know someone who is? The WRPC is seeking the services of a professional contractor to construct a building extension on the existing WRPC clubhouse to contain indoor washroom facilities.

Contact 633-6202 for tender documents and to arrange a site review. Tender closes July 16, 2015.

 

Gate Keys

If you are a currently paid up member and missed the AGM, you also missed an opportunity to receive your gate key for 2015. The locks were changed after the meeting.

There is still an opportunity to get your 2014 gate key exchanged for the 2015 version by coming out to the club house on Monday March 23rd or Wednesday March 25th at 7 PM.

 

January 2015 Membership Open House

Shake the January blues on Sunday January 11th, 2015 from 10 am to 4 pm.

Come out to the clubhouse and renew your membership, have a coffee, chat with friends, check out the Swap Meet and hang around for a short general meeting.

The Annual General Meeting will be scheduled for March 2015. New year gate keys will be issued then, so hang on to your current (2014) key.  The date change for the AGM was made to accommodate our required financial review for 2014 by a professional accountant and to have the Constitution and Bylaw revisions approved and ready for implementation with the next election of club executives.
