Indoor Range Backstop Damaged by high velocity rounds

See the image below of damage to the indoor range backstop caused by high velocity rounds. Please keep in mind that the only firearms allowed on the indoor range are handguns firing ammunition rated at less than 2,000 fps and .22 LR rifles. Pistols firing ammunition with a muzzle velocity in excess of 2000 FPS (e.g. the FN Five-seveN), Shotguns and other rifles such as, but not limited to .22 magnum and .17 HMR are prohibited. Failure to adhere to this rule will result in disciplinary action and may result in termination of membership.

If you are aware of any member or guest violating this rule, please refer them to the range rules and/or report the violation to any club officer, director or RSO or via e-mail to the secretary.

Continued damage to the backstop will make it necessary to close the indoor range pending a reorientation of all members regarding range rules.

Friday Night Fun Shoots Start June 1

SaraSpa will again hold the popular Friday Night Fun Shoots and Cookout every other Friday starting June 1 and continuing through August 24. This fun event is intended to be an opportunity for members and the general public to introduce young people to the shooting sports in a fun and safe environment. Kids have priority but adults can shoot too. Steel plate shooting is also available on the 200 yard range. See the Fun Shoot Flyer for details.

2018 Guest Waivers Required

Each year, a completed and signed guest waiver is required for all guests and family members present on SaraSpa property. Waiver forms are located near the sign- in book. Waivers are good for the entire calendar year. Also, all guests other than members' spouses and children under 18 years of age are required to pay a guest fee. Members are responsible for assuring that waivers are completed and that guest fees are paid as well as assuring that guests follow all Standard Operating Procedures and Range Rules.

Post no Bills and Clean up

As renovation of the clubhouse interior nears completion members should take care to avoid damage to the walls and cabinets with gun boxes or cases. Posting of any material on the walls is strictly prohibited. There is a cork board in the hallway leading to the range for posting items for sale.Cardboard and targets that you hang should not be left on the range or placed in the trashcans.

Help Maintain the Club Environment

In light of our growing membership and the subsequent increased use of the club ranges, members are reminded of the need to keep the club’s facilities in order. To support and provide a safe and clean environment for everyone it is imperative that all members and leagues leave the ranges in the order in which they found them. It is expected that all equipment be returned to its original space after use. For example, tables, archery butts, signs, and backstop foam. Failure to return the club’s facilities to an orderly condition after use will result in action by the Board of Directors against the specific members/leagues involved. Cardboard and targets that you hang should not be left on the range or placed in the trashcans. It should be carried out and placed in the dumpster located in the clubhouse parking lot.
