>>>> This is going to be a busy year at the range, be sure and watch the calendar and if possible, check the website for last minute changes. Law enforcement groups from around the area sometimes request parts of the range for training at the last minute. We do not schedule any event that will close the lower ranges in September or the first two weeks of October, for any reason.

The directors, and officers, of the Gem County Rod and Gun Club offer their support and give their highest endorsement to Tom Neth for the office of Gem County Sheriff.

Club members do not always close and lock the gate when entering or leaving the range. Leaving the gate unlocked permits non-members to enter the range. Non-members then get locked in and either calls a member for the combination or a member has to go to the range and unlock the gate. Or the non-member takes the fence down to drive out; then a member has to fix the fence. It may be an inconvenience to close and lock the gate when entering or leaving, but it's also an inconvenience to others when they have to take care of the resulting problems. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
