our shooting ranges

Information about and photos (thumbnails which will open full-sized views) of the shooting ranges go here.

I have purchased and at the June meeting will donate to the club the NRA's "Range Source Book: A Guide to Planning and Construction" on CD-ROM. It is a comprehensive and exhaustive 674-page manual which covers about any issue you could imagine.

It is the definitive guide to creating, maintaining and protecting a gun range or gun club.

IDEA: Possibilities were mentioned that fund raisers (including those with outside groups) are of interest. Examples are 4-H, National Wild Turkey Federation, Women in the Outdoors, NRA, etc.

IDEA: It might also be possible to contact other clubs and ranges (such as the Fall Creek Valley Conservation Club) to see if they would maybe teach some classes here and share revenue, or if we pay them a modest fee to consult from time to time they could help us develop the club. Arrangements might be made for our members (or at least the officers) to tour their range. There are other local clubs with whom this may be possible, too.

our contact information

I can make a form so that visitors can sign up for your e-mail list, or they can contact Amy or the appropriate officer.

We can list the officers and their preferred contact information here.

  • Steve Fennig
    ksf1959@yahoo.com
  • Amy Lathem
    765-730-1648
    ma061899@sbcglobal.net

IDEA: We could also make available a membership directory but make it fairly private by preventing Google and other search engines from archiving it and by making it read-only and password protecting it.
