The road to the club is clear up to near the main clubhouse. In other words access to rifle and pistol ranges is OK. With the warming temperatures and some rain access to the clubhouse should be available soon. Range B 50 and 100m are OK. The 200 target stand has been knocked down and there is no shooting at 200. Range A - needs some work to fix up the target stands.

If your membership card indicates that your status is Prospective, then you need to attend an Orientation. Orientation is generally done once a month. Currently there are 27 members who need to attend Orientation before they will receive the gate code and Active Status. Prospective members will receive an email when there is going to be an Orientation. They can also look for Orientation events in the Club News and on the Calendar. 

If your membership card indicates Pending then there is information missing on your application. Often this is an adequate picture. The picture should be of your head and shoulders  and uploaded to your account in Jpeg format. Pictures of PAL cards, or you fishing, hunting or shooting are not acceptable. 

Many of our those currently with Pending status are multi-year members who have been carried over into our new membership system. Some have uploaded ID photos, but have not updated the rest of their membership information or signed the new waiver. Pending members can log in to their membership file and update this info, after which you will receive the gate code. 

Please note that an attempt or attempts have been made to contact multi-year members.
