This set of rules provides a comprehensive outline for the safe and responsible use of the archery and airgun pavilion. Here’s a breakdown of each rule and its significance:

  1. Designated Targets for Specific Tips: This rule ensures that the appropriate targets are used for the type of ammunition being fired. Using field tips on hanging archery targets prevents damage to the targets and maintains safety.

  2. Separate Target for Broadheads: Broadheads are specialized tips designed for hunting and can cause significant damage to regular targets. Providing a separate target specifically for broadhead practice ensures the safety of participants and preserves the integrity of the regular targets.

  3. Designation of Range Officer: Having a designated range officer helps maintain order and ensures that safety protocols are followed. This individual is responsible for overseeing activities on the range and can intervene if any unsafe behavior is observed.

  4. Firing Line Requirement: Requiring all shooting to be done from beneath the pavilion and at the firing line helps ensure that shots are directed safely downrange and minimizes the risk of accidents.

  5. Weapon Handling Protocol: Requiring all weapons to be unloaded and properly stored when others are downrange helps prevent accidental discharge and ensures the safety of all participants.

  6. Prohibition of Alcohol and Drugs: This rule is crucial for maintaining a safe environment on the range. Alcohol and drugs can impair judgment and coordination, increasing the risk of accidents. By prohibiting their use, the range promotes responsible behavior and prioritizes safety.

Overall, these rules establish clear guidelines for safe and responsible use of the archery and airgun pavilion, promoting a secure and enjoyable experience for all participants.

Dear Members,
We recently sent out a letter with your tickets that included an incorrect date for the upcoming vote on the bylaws. The vote will take place during our regularly scheduled meeting on June 19th, not June 13th as previously stated.

We apologize for any confusion this may have caused and appreciate your understanding.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to seeing you at the meeting on June 19th.

Best regards,
GCOC
