Ranges
- Last Updated: August, 26 2024 12:17: PM August, 26 2024 12:17: PM
All indoor and outdoor ranges have remained open and operational during the summer. Range Officer coverage has been great outdoors and we thank all those who volunteer.
The Executive Board, along with the Planning Board, has, for the last year, been planning the expansion of the old indoor range by adding 8-9 new shooting stations, to include rifles. The design has been determined and we are having comprehensive plans drafted. In the interim, the planning board has been speaking with vendors and obtaining bids. We anticipate the entire interior of the range will be new, with new shooting booths, target carriers and backstop.
