Lock Change January 29, 2017

This is notice that the gate locks to the range will be changed after the Swap Meet on Sunday January 29, 2017.

Members in good standing (i.e. proof that 2017 membership dues are paid) can receive their 2017 gate key upon return of the 2016 key.

Membership renewals will be accepted at this time as well, with cash or personal cheque.

Swap Meet

Club members are welcome to come and check out the clubhouse on Sunday January 29, 2017 from 10 am to 3 pm. Coffee pot will be on. Swap your stuff for the other guy’s stuff.

Remember that all regulations regarding the transportation and the sale of firearms and ammunition will apply.

Tables available for members only. Limit is 2 tables.  Be prepared to help set up tables.

Ammo Restrictions for Indoor Range

There has been evidence of members using incorrect ammunition while shooting their centre fire handgun in the Indoor Range. Using the wrong ammunition will damage the target holders and backstop and poses an injury risk because of splashback.

This is a reminder that the Indoor Range is approved for centre fire handguns that meet the following criteria:

  • Target loads (non magnum loads)
  • LEAD bullets only.
  • No jacketed or semi-jacketed bullets.

Only  paper targets are permitted.

Two Open House times for membership renewals are scheduled for Sunday January 8, 2017  from 1 pm to 3 pm and Saturday January 21, 2017 from 10 am to 2 pm.

Payment in cash or personal cheque. Fees remain unchanged.

Payment (cash or cheque) can also be received at the clubhouse on Monday and Wednesday evenings when the Indoor Range is in use, or by mail with a personal cheque to WRPC, Box 30078 Whitehorse, Yukon Y1A 5M2.
