Understanding and applying the range safety  rules is critical to everyone’s safety therefore  members are required to participate in a range orientation prior to using the facility.

  • Bring your membership card. If that is not available your PAL will be required to confirm identity.
  • You will be asked to sign in when entering the clubhouse.
  • Dress for the weather and bring your hearing protection with you.
  • In addition to time in the clubhouse there is a walk about the entire outdoor range area to reinforce application of the range rules.
  • Associate members in a dual or family membership are encouraged to attend a range orientation with the primary member. 
  • Scheduling the range orientation sessions is based on availability of the designated range officer.

  • A club member is not obligated to receive a gate key.
  • The gate key is issued only to the primary member named on the membership and who is in possession of a valid PAL/RPAL.
  • Gate keys will not be copied or loaned.
  • Possession of a gate key requires the member to participate in a range orientation, commit to following the range rules and assume responsibility for the security of the property.
  • At the end of the membership year the locks on the gates are changed.
  • Members are required to return their old key at the end of the membership year.
  • A new year gate key will be issued to a member who maintains their membership in good standing through continuous annual renewal.
  • If a membership lapses for one year or more, participation in a range orientation is required before a new year gate key is issued.
