Whereas a motion was made and adopted by those accredited members present at the Annual General Meeting held February 5, 2017 which directed that the membership year be changed from the current January 1st to December 31st schedule to an April 1st to March 31st schedule, the following resolution is hereby made:
Replace the existing Constitution and Bylaws of the Whitehorse Rifle & Pistol Club dated January 15, 2015 in its entirety with the revised version dated August 15, 2017.

On Wednesday October 11, 2017 at 7 pm a Special General Meeting will be held in the clubhouse on Grey Mountain Road to pass a Special Resolution to replace the existing January 2015 Constitution and Bylaws with the revised August 2017 version. Revisions have been made to the bylaws referencing the membership year, membership classification definitions and membership fee schedules. No other bylaw revisions will be made at this time. There are no changes to membership fees.

The final version of the Constitution and Bylaws is available here for your reference.

WRPC CONSTITUTION AND BYLAWS REVISED AUGUST 2017 DRAFT

A separate post follows to describe the transition process for managing memberships once this resolution is passed and final approval is received from the Registrar of Societies.

Your presence at this meeting is appreciated. There will be no other agenda items at this Special General Meeting.

Bears have been observed at the range over the past few weeks and while they do appear friendly and cuddly, they are still wild animals and unpredictable when stressed. There has even been a mother and cubs who visit the various range areas.

Members are again reminded of the Range Rules which state that all wildlife at the shooting range is protected. Primarily, this means that they are given the right of way when observed moving in and around the various shooting venues and people should not be shooting near them in an attempt to scare them away. Call a cease-fire and wait for them to move away before you resume your shooting activity.

Please 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.

Should you have concerns, you can always call the TIPP line (1-800-661-0525) to report a bear sighting.
