Member Information
Member Only Pages Access:
We have created a new "members only" access area. These areas will require that you create an account to log in. You will be asked to create a unique password. Upon completion, a request will be sent to the administrator to allow access. Once access is granted you will be able to post in the forum, and see the other pages in the area. You must be a CURRENT member IN GOOD STANDING to be granted access.
Member News
The Board and membership will now allow a "family" membership. The primary member has a work commitment, a spouse or domestic partner who resides in the household may obtain a gate card and may use the range without the primary member present. Only the primary member gets to vote at meetings. Bylaws were changed to reflect this new status.
