    We have installed a key card access on Shed B to access Target Stands!

    First and foremost, we'd like to thank Mark Corriveau for installing the new RFID reader on Pistol Shed B. With this new system, Pistol will still be selling access to the shed for the target program and we will be able to easily manage the pistol shed access electronically. This will be an effective way to enable your key card to enter the pistol house and now the target shed. We also added all the people who have already paid into the key card access for shed B. If  you have issues getting into the shed, please send Zach Martins, Pistol Co-Chair, a message and he will address the issue.

    As a friendly reminder when using the Campground and Race Track gates, please lock them when you are done. The gates are there to protect your club and keep the property use for members only.

    Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!

    It has been brought to our attention that someone is shooting broadheads at the outdoor targets. This is not allowed at the Club as the targets are not made for broadheads.

    As a reminder, FIELD POINTS ONLY please!
