Due to continuing increases on Liability Insurance and general upkeep costs on the Range Facility, it has become necessary to charge an annual fee for those members who wish to use the Shooting Range.
Beginning in 2009 dues period, all Members who wish to use the Range, will be required to purchase a Range Card at a cost of $25.00 per year! (This includes life members as well!)
In order to purchase a range card, your Club Membership dues must be paid up to date. There will be a separate application form for the Range Card, and the Range Card will be a separate card in itself. The Range Card along with your Membership Card must be displayed at all times while using the Range!
Also beginning with 2009 dues period, all new Members will be charged an initiation fee of $20.00 for the 1st year for the purchase of a Range Card. After the 1st year, they will pay $25.00 per year.
These fees have become necessary in order for the Range to remain open. As most Sportsmen know, many Shooting Ranges in the area have been closed, and that is mainly due to the ever increasing costs of liability.
Thanks for your understanding!!
