Winter 2012
Intermittent Range Closures Expected


Work has begun on the pistol range.  And with that, there maybe some unscheduled windows of time when the range needs to be closed due to safety concerns.  Thanks so much for understanding... we're getting there!  Please call Ben for up to the minute range closures.  The progress of this range can only move forward with your help.  Anyone who would like to give Ben a hand or if you just want to say thanks for all his time and hard work, click here to contact Ben directly and let him know!

Construction Begins on Pavilion
With the recent approval from the Maryland Environmental Trust, we have begun construction on our new Shooting Pavilion and range expansion and improvements.  Once complete, our new range will be capable of serving hand gun and rifle shooters simultaneously. 

With our Thanks!
This fall, many of our members came out and helped with construction.  We could not have done it without your support.

This spring, we will perform the work necessary to complete the 200 yard expansion of our shooting range.  Please look for announcements in March and April for volunteer opportunities.
