To Members,

As we are moving to level 2 on Thursday, the range will be open this Friday, but with restrictions.
We will be open for members only.
Social distancing will apply. This means shooting alternate mounds as we did before, so Detail 1 will be odd numbers, Detail 2 will be even numbers. Then a change of targets and Details 3 and 4 will follow the same pattern.
QR code for the range will be clearly displayed and we encourage you to use this. Sign in for shooting will be as normal.
Hand sanitizer will be available and we will wipe down surfaces and club rifles regularly.
We hope to see you there.

In the meantime, stay safe, be kind, and remember;
if you are sick, stay home.
if you have cold, flu or COVID symptoms, call healthline or your doctor and get advise about being tested.
