The annual Silver Dollar Shoot is going to be held next month at the range.

If you work the Silver Dollar, your points are taken care of for the year! Additionally, with the upcoming hunting season, it is important to stress that there is ABSOLUTELY no hunting, shooting, trapping of any kind at the range. If you are found doing so, you will be removed from the club and reported to proper authorities. Please remember, we are a family club.
