Trap and Skeet Field Maintenance

Over the next couple of weeks there will be some maintenance projects happening on the trap and skeet fields.
As always, any maintenance work takes priority over shooting. If you show up to shoot, and there’s work being done, feel free to lend a hand if you can.
Here’s a few of the projects to watch out for:
  • The siding is being replaced on the skeet houses
  • Edging around all of the sidewalks
  • Concrete – Each field is having some concrete work done.

Spring Cleaning

Spring Cleaning

April 12th and 19th

8:00 AM-5:00 PM

Our cleaning service will be doing an extra level of cleaning at the main clubhouse and archery range. In order to make this go as efficiently as possible, the clubhouse and indoor archery range will be closed from 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM on Friday, April 12th and Friday, April 19th.

Trap and Skeet will be open, but you won’t be able to go inside to load your long range card or use the bathrooms since the building will be closed.

After 5:00 PM the facility will be open as normal.

 

Thanks for understanding!

Customer Hearing Protection

 

Hear4Ever is coming back this year to make custom injected ear plugs for our VLS athletes and SCC club members! They will be here on March 24th from 9:00 to 3:30. This event filled up fast last year, so get signed up right away!

Please sign up here:

https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30E0949A4AB28A1F94-47908934-custom#/

These are fantastic ear plugs! They’re very comfortable. They’re easy to put in and take out. They’re very effective! And they last a long time.

It takes about 1 hour or so from start to finish. You’ll spend about 10-15 minutes in the chair to pick your colors and options and for the earplugs to be injected. Then it takes around an hour for your earplugs to cure and get the finishing touches.

We’ll have sign-up slots every 15 minutes, but last year they were able to squeeze in some extras, so if all of the sign-up slots are full you might want to just show up and hang around, they might be able to get you in.

Prices:
Youth: $65
Adults: $75
Lanyard (optional): $5
Filters(optional): $20 (set)
