Temporary Closing

Trap Ranges will be closed December 23, 2009. Please call ahead to ensure that the ranges are open as they may be temporarily closed due to renovation.

Notice

Beginning December 1, 2009, the rifle/pistol range will be closing for a major renovation. During this time our trap, archery and shotgun patterning ranges will remain open. The renovation includes a high pressure concrete floor, concrete baffles and a steel bullet trap. This renovation will allow us to operate at the highest level of care and safety. In addition we will also have the ability to recycle lead from the bullet trap. We hope to reopen on September 1st, 2010. Please frequent this website after the renovation begins for photos, progress reports and updated information.
