Ladies Pistol Class Sept 5, 2020
NSSA’s Ladies Pistol Orientation will be offered on Saturday, September 5th, 2020 at Northside Sportsmen’s Association. This orientation class will include both classroom instruction and shooting outdoors on our West Range. The emphasis of this class is safety and fun.
The orientation class is four hours long. Participants can choose from either a morning session at 8:00am or an afternoon session at 1:00pm. Class space is limited to twenty-four participants at each session. We anticipate spots will fill up quickly so act now. Participation is NOT limited to club members.
The cost to participate in the class is $60, which covers the cost of ammunition and other expenses. Payment is required at the time of registration to hold your spot in the class. Participants will receive a full refund if they cancel their registration before September 1, 2020. No refund will be provided for cancellations made after September 1, 2020.

West Range expanded availability
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.
2019 NSSA Hunting Season Range Closures

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.
