Range Rules - No loaded firearms on the range unless on the firing line and load command has been given. Eye and ear protection required. No shooting before 9am or after dusk or 5pm. No rapid fire. Event must end and all persons off the range BY 5pm
Special information Due to the layout of the ranges, it is possible to be "sprayed" with lead from shot or pistol. This spent "lead rain" in our past visit was not much of an issue, but the possibility exists, and you should know about it and understand there's a reason "eye and ear protection is REQUIRED" at this location. For this reason, attendance is at your own risk.

This is the last 2009 shoot in the whole country. With the short notice the promotions efforts need to be tackled by all of us. SOP anyways.
