The club road is open as of 16 Jan 2026 but slippery in places so use at your own risk. Lots of ice on parking lots and ranges.

Members and guests should be very careful while moving around as freezing temps return overnight.  Also remember that club locks will freeze in the cold and may require thawing to open.

The sporting clays group held their annual Santa’s Challenge Shoot on Saturday, 6 Dec 2025. Twenty one brave souls shot 75 targets on a cool but pleasant sunny December day. The Sun made a cold day a nice winter day. Overall champ was Herb with 60. Runner up was Scott with 56. Classes B and C winners were Evan at 46 and Devon with 38.

Also noteworthy was a collection of $200 for the Food Sharing Association. Thanks to everyone who helped in the kitchen, planning shoot course, setting up and taking down. Special thanks to Quality Auto Sales for providing prizes.
