NSSA 2019 membership renewal

Posted on by Posted in Membership
We have officially begun the 2019 renewal process and are now ready to start processing renewals. We will once again be encouraging members to pay their dues in person before we send out paper renewal notices in the mail. This will help to cut down on paperwork for the membership committee and will allow you to receive your 2019 sticker immediately without having to wait for it to arrive via US mail.
At this time we have four opportunities scheduled for members to renew in person at the clubhouse- dates and times listed below. Members must bring their access card with them if they choose to renew in person. Please make note that full payment (cash, credit card or check made out to NSSA) is necessary for your renewal to be processed if you are a junior or regular member. We are able to accept both debit and credit cards, including chip cards and Apple/Google Pay. 
Saturday, July 14th: 12pm-2pm
Thursday, July 26th: 4pm-8pm
Tuesday, August 7th: 6pm-7:30pm and 8pm-9pm**
Sunday, August 12th: 10am-2pm
**Please note that on Tuesday, August 7th, renewals will be processed from 6:00pm until 7:30pm when the August General Membership Meeting is called to order. Renewals will then be processed for approximately one hour following the adjournment of the meeting. No renewals will be processed during the meeting.
Regular Member Volunteers
Regular members who have completed volunteer service at the club must bring their signed volunteer card to be elgible for discounted dues.
Military Members
Active duty military members must provide a copy of their current active duty orders to have their dues waived.
Life Members
Although Life Members with orange “LIFE” stickers on their cards do not owe dues they are still required to renew and let us know that they intend to maintain their membership at NSSA. Life Members can renew in person, by responding to this email or via mail once we send the forms out.
 
Those who renew in person before September 1st will be entered into a drawing for a free 2020 NSSA membership. TWO lucky winners will be chosen at random and announced at the September General Membership Meeting.
Those who choose not to renew in person can expect to receive their paper renewal form no later than September 1st. Feel free to reach out via email if you have a specific question about your membership or about the renewal process. In addition, if you have moved and not yet updated your address with NSSA now is the time to do so.

Regards,

Emily Noftz
NSSA Director/Membership Chairman

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.
