 | Bass River Rod & Gun ClubCelebrating our 89th Year! |
Shooting Range Orientation Program
In order to use the Indoor Range and the Outdoor Rifle and Pistol Ranges, Members must complete the Safe Range Orientation Program. It is in two parts. The Program is staffed by NRA Certified Chief Range Safety Officers and NRA Range Safety Officers who have been providing extra help and refresher instruction to our members. In the end, keeping the Bass River firing ranges safe is the best way to ensure the continuation of the Club into the future. Classes are offered each month, weather permitting.
