To use the range as a non-member, there is a little paperwork to fill out. Its our "waiver from hell". It takes a minute to fill out and is for the best. I have posted the "Non-Member Info Sheet" and "Public Range Rules" below for everyone to be able to take a minute to read over before coming to the range. Most public range users are really eager to get out on the range and spend very little time on this form. I have also explained each of the Public Range Rules so there should be no misunderstanding about what we require for safe gunhandling.
