Rifle Range Renovation Schedule

Posted on by Posted in Building and Grounds, Club Operations, Ranges, Rifle

Improvements for the Rifle Range pavilion are coming this fall. The first upgrade scheduled is the replacement of the broken concrete pad. Work will start Labor Day, Monday, September 4, 2017. This will require shutting down the range during work hours, 8 AM until about 3:30 or 4 PM all week. We will move the shooting benches into the grass and establish a new firing line there so that members may shoot each day after the workers finish. All range rules will remain the same as before. Shooters are still required to sign in as always, but will not be charged to shoot, as the cash box will be unavailable. The pistol range will not be affected by this work, and will remain open.

On Saturday, September 9 the workers are planning to pour the concrete. After that shooting out on the grass should be available every day all day, until we are told we can use the pad and bring the benches back under the pavilion. The F Class CMP shoot will occur on Sunday, September 10, weather permitting.

Golf Cart Training at the Rifle Range

Posted on by Posted in Building and Grounds, Club Operations, Membership, Rifle, Training

Since the rifle range will be shut down all day Saturday Sept 12, 2015, for the annual NSSA family picnic, there will be training sessions all morning at the rifle range on the use of the golf cart.

Starting time is 8 AM and will continue until about noon. Anyone who wants the training and has not taken it is welcome. I believe I can train perhaps 30 to 40 members on a first come first serve basis. You must bring your access card so it can be updated to provide access as well as for proof of membership.

See you Saturday Sept 12.

Thanks,
Stan Hoover, Rifle Range Chairman

Volunteer opportunities – Rifle/Pistol range CLOSED June 6th morning

Posted on by Posted in Building and Grounds, Pistol, Rifle, Volunteer

We have two volunteer opportunities for Saturday morning, June 6th…

 
The rifle and pistol range needs 4 volunteers from 8:00 to 10:00 to cut grass, weed whack, and prime the new shed.

Both the Rifle Range and the Pistol Ranges will be closed on Saturday during this time.

We also need 5 physically fit volunteers from 8:00 to 12:00 to do perimeter signage.  Applicants should be able to climb a fairly steep 100 ft. hill without difficulty.

Of course, all volunteers receive credit against 2016 dues, up to a maximum of six hours.

Volunteers will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis.  Please email volunteer@northsidesportsmen.com if you’re interested.

Thank you for your support of NSSA.

Regards,
