| Notices and Alerts Range Status As of 7/5/2021 RANGE GATE COMBINATION HAS BEEN CHANGED The gate combination has now been changed to the combination for the 2021-2022 membership year. If you have not received your new card, please contact either Jay Madison or George Mowbray. Please be careful to line up all targets such that bullets impact the earthen berms, not our beautiful new timber walls. Thanks for you patience, be careful, follow the rules, and enjoy shooting again. There is still work that may require temporary closures, but we will make every effort to post notices of any partial closures on this web page.

This is not legal advice. It is your responsibility to know and obey all applicable laws. Thank you. President Jim Ely MOWING ETIQUETTE
The Club pays a contractor to mow the Range about once a month If you are at the Range when the tractor/bush-hog rig shows up to mow, or he is there mowing when you arrive to shoot anything anywhere on any Range, please remember mowing takes priority over any shooting activities. Please yield to him for safety's sake so he can finish mowing safely without delay. Take no chances. Don't assume anything. Make contact with him and get a clear understanding of where he is mowing and where he needs to go next to finish. Send no shot downrange unless you are positive of the location and planned activity of the mowing tractor so that it will be safe.

STANDING NOTICES
Convenient NRA Membership Information Link
If you need to change some of your information in your NRA Membership Information, check on your expiration date or need to print a new card, there is a convenient way to do this. (When I did it, I found the NRA still listed my area code as "318", which has not been our area code in Lake Charles in a long time.) If you wish to check your information on file with the NRA, you may go to NRA Member Services and register to view, edit or print a new card or other details of your membership.
Description of the Membership Management Software and Website
The Club uses Wild Apricot, which is web-based software that automates and simplifies the management of our membership and our website. With Wild Apricot, the Club now has the ability to create "member-only" pages. The software uses your email address as your user name, so in order to have access to the "member-only" features, you must have a user name and password. Most pages are public and you can view all public pages without logging in, however, if you wish to update any information in your profile, or access any other member only features, you will need to log in using your email address and password. This will allow you to view "members only" pages. At the moment, the only page that is designated as member only is the member profile page, where you can change your address and update your NRA membership information. In the future we may offer the ability to renew both your Club membership and your NRA membership through the site, but we are taking baby steps initially. If you do not have a password and wish to access member-only pages, please contact the Secretary Jay Madison and request a password. You will then receive an email regarding establishing a password.
Once you have created a password, please sign in and check your member profile for accuracy and completeness, especially your NRA number and expiration date.
