2019 NSSA Hunting Season Range Closures
It has been the policy in the past for all outdoor ranges to be closed during the first week of deer season, typically Monday after Thanksgiving until the following Saturday night. However this year the PA Game Commission is opening deer season one extra day, Saturday November 30- but not Sunday December 1.
Therefore the NSSA Board of Directors has decided that the following closures will be in effect for this year:
- All outdoor ranges will be closed Friday evening November 29 at dusk and will
remain closed all day Saturday November 30. - Rifle, Pistol, and the West Range will remain closed until Sunday December 8.
- Trap and Skeet will be open Sunday December 1 during regular hours, will be closed Monday December 2 thru Saturday December 7, and reopen Sunday December 8. In addition, Trap and Skeet will be open their regular evening hours after 5 PM (4 PM if there are no hunters signed into the Hunting Sign In Book).
- Outdoor Archery will be closed from Saturday November 30 until Sunday December 8, except that it will be open Sunday December 1. There will be no closures of the indoor Archery Range.
Please understand that there is to be NO shooting of firearms during the range closures anywhere on NSSA property except in legal hunting. If you don’t have your firearm sighted in before Saturday November 30, you cannot sight it in here during the week of closures. Violators will be subject to disciplinary action by the Board.

Great participation in Hunter education class
Over 60 students were in attendance for today’s Hunter education class at NSSA. We were pleased to see so many young people taking an interest in this pastime.
We wish to thank instructors Tony Wight and Rob Olszewski for taking the time to administer this class.
Get your name on the Cup!
The West Range committee has been working on a way to recognize participation in their events. And now, after many meetings, concepts, and design reviews we are proud to unveil to you the West Range Cup! This one of a kind special commission has been refurbished by the artisans at Hominsky studios using only the finest materials.
Congratulations to the first 2 recipients Doug Spirelis and Tom Bartos!
