Nanaimo Fish & Game Club

We're Looking for Range Safety Officers (RSOs)!

Summer is here, and many of our volunteer RSOs are taking some well-earned weekends off. To keep our ranges open, we need additional volunteers to help fill those shifts.

If we're unable to fill an RSO shift, the range will have to close for the day.

If you have a few hours to spare and would like to help, we'd love to hear from you. Training is available, and it's a great way to support your club and fellow members.

For more information or to get started, contact:

Thank you for helping keep our ranges open, safe, and available for everyone!

Volunteers Needed – Masonry/Concrete Repairs

Our pistol range needs a little attention, and we're looking for a few skilled volunteers to help.

When the retaining wall was built in 1992, the canted corners of the blocks were filled with concrete. Over the years, some of that fill has deteriorated and fallen out, and we'd like to restore it to keep the range looking its best.

If you have experience as a mason, concrete worker, stucco tradesperson, or have similar skills, your help would be greatly appreciated. This is a great opportunity to contribute to the ongoing maintenance and improvement of our club facilities.

To volunteer or learn more, please contact:

Thank you for helping keep our club safe, functional, and looking great for all members.
