Range Safety Officers

Orange hats identify the wearer as a Range Safety Officer. These volunteers help members to make sure that we are all using the ranges safely. Target placement is one of their concerns making sure that bullets are impacting the backstop dirt mounds. Other concerns include the use of eye/ear protection, gun handling, use of the range sirens, archery range safety, and indoor range safety. They also check to make sure that members are wearing their membership cards as we have received reports of non-members entering and using the club ranges. These volunteers do not perform the traditional Range Officer duties such as calling commands on shooting lines. We ask that all members keep these issues in mind and even though you aren't wearing an orange hat, watch out for unsafe practices and help others who may not know that what is being done is not safe.

Indoor Range Targets

It has come to our attention that someone has been improperly shooting targets in the indoor range. Targets have been stapled in between the correct firing points. This will not be tolerated. This causes the life of the replaceable plywood to diminish greatly. Which in turn drives the maintenance costs up. Below are photos to better demonstrate the point.
