    How to join our club: 
    In order to join our club you must attend the 3 day shotgun safety course which is offered in the fall and again over the winter. This will be held on September17th and 18th.  That is the first thing you need to do along with your school referrals. If you did not attend the course you will need to wait until the next course is offered. This is a requirement to join our club. This course is different than the hunter safety course. The cost for this course is $35. You must be at least 12 years old to take this course and at least in 7th grade to join the club. All members MUST shoot trap with us for a year before they can join skeet or sporting clays. You will be required to get 2-3 referrals from your school. Accepted referral sources are the school principal and guidance counselor. You must be recommended by your school principal and guidance office to join this club. I will also be doing a discipline check quarterly to determine your eligibility under our code of conduct/club rules. You will receive a referral form at the Sept. 3rd meeting or you can get one at the safety course from Ms. McCuen. You must also maintain a "C" average to remain eligible.
