Member Access to Club Driveway, Ranges, and Club House

The entrance driveway is now closed to vehicular traffic for the winter season.
To avoid becoming stuck in the snow and to prevent damaging the roadbed, members (and others) should not attempt to drive through the gateway.
Club shooting ranges may still be used, but members will have to park at the road and walk, snowshoe, or ski in to use them
DO NOT PARK IN FRONT OF THE GATE. In winter the driveway must always be available for emergency access. Official responders are able to open the gate and use snow-going vehicles to help with emergencies on the club property.
When you park near the entrance, as a courtesy please post your cellphone number in your vehicle window in case you need to be contacted.
The clubhouse is closed. It has been winterized - water shut off, pipes drained, etc. The combination to the lock on the door has been changed. So, there are no restroom facilities available at the range until next spring.
The lock on the members' clay thrower is set to the combination furnished to members for the current membership year.
When the roadbed firms up after spring thaw, the driveway will be reopened.
Please contact the secretary or other officers with questions and concerrns.

Access to PLSC Liability Waiver Forms

A clipboard with waiver forms for guests that you may bring out to the range has been placed at the covered range in the green deck box.

Here's a couple pictures of the clipboard location:

There are a few pens with the clipboard. The ink will probably freeze, so you may need to bring your own pen.
In case you want to fill out a waiver form before going to the range, here is a link to a printable PDF copy of the 1-page form.

Open Waiver Form
PLEASE leave the completed forms inside the clipboard case.
