The club consists of the following facilities built on 27.5 acres: a club house, 2 storage buildings, a pistol range, a rifle range, a shotgun patterning range and a trap range with trap house. The pistol range has three pistol shooting distances set at 5, 12.5 and 25 yards. The rifle range has five shooting distances set at 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 yards. Both the pistol and rifle ranges have roof covered shooting stations and backer boards down range for hanging paper targets. A separate shotgun patterning range has two shooting distances set at 30 and 40 yards with a bench and target backers in place. The trap range is set up for both standard and handicap shooting distances with voice activated bird release. The club also has a black powder woods walk course that is used during scheduled black powder shoots. The club conducts the following shoots: monthly handgun shoot, hi power (hunting) rifle shoot & muzzle loader shoot, weekly trap shoots and a yearly memorial trap shoot with all proceeds donated to a local cancer treatment center. Check our website Event Calendar tab for dates and times. Member’s meetings are held the last Monday of each month.

It’s done! The Pistol and Short-Range project has been completed. The range will reopen for all activities starting Thursday, 9/17/26.

Thank you to all our members for your patience and understanding during the replacement of the Pistol and Short-Range covers. The old covers were estimated to be more than 50 years old and were beyond repair.

A few finishing touches will be completed in the spring, including new wooden shooting benches. If you have a design you prefer, please let us know! We will also be adding more seating benches and gun racks.

The success of fundraisers like the Sportsmans Raffle makes projects like these possible. Once again, thank you to all the members who support our Club fundraisers.

What Club upgrades would you like to see next?

The Directors would also like to thank Jerry Devlin for the countless hours he spent planning and overseeing this project. His hard work and dedication are greatly appreciated.
