Youth Archery resuming 9/27

Posted on by Posted in Archery, JOAD, Open to Public, Ranges, Youth

NSSA Youth Archery will resume on Sunday, Sept 27th 2020. In order to maintain social distancing, we have divided the group into 2 sessions: 10am-12noon, and 1pm-3pm. CDC guidelines will be followed; All equipment will be sanitized in between sessions and masks will be required at all times except while on the firing line.

When archers are on the firing line, masks may be removed as it is a potential safety issue and interferes with proper anchoring. Archers on the firing line will be positioned at every other target to ensure they are a safe distance from one another.

Limited spots are available in the 1pm-3pm session only. If interested, email youtharchery@northsidesportsmen.com

Please include the following in your email:

  • bow type (Combound/Recurve)
  • If you have your own equipment, or will use a bow provided by the club.

West Range expanded availability

Posted on by Posted in Ranges, West Range

The West Range Committee and the Board of Directors have jointly agreed to modify the West Range shooting policy in order to make the range available to more NSSA club members. Effective immediately, a RSO is no longer required to accompany a member to open the West Range.  Any two NSSA members can now open the West Range together at any time.  This means both shooters must be NSSA Members, and does not mean an NSSA member and a guest.  You must both be NSSA MEMBERS. 

The only time the West Range will not be open to members is when a scheduled event or training session is taking place.  So, before heading out to shoot on the West Range always be sure to check the club’s website to verify that the range is open.  

There will also be a movable standing target frame available that can be placed anywhere in the stones forward of the pavilion for members that have been approved to draw from a holster and have their red holster sticker displayed.  Reminder: holster work cannot be done while UNDER the pavilion.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to the West Range Chairman: west.range@northsidesportsmen.com
