Rifle Sportsmen’s Club

Membership at Large

RE:     Rifle Sportsmen’s Club Annual Membership Dues Increases

The Rifle Sportsmen's Club (RSC) represents over 330 members in the Garfield County area, and we hold a unique place in our community.  The RSC is a completely independent, private club that receives no funding from state, county or municipal sources.  We are funded exclusively by our membership dues and the members and guests that attend our shooting events.  This means we have the freedom to make our own decisions regarding membership, operations and finances. 

As our club grows and we make improvements to our facilities, our expenses continually increase.  For the past several years the RSC has been able to hold its membership dues steady at $150.00 per year.  The time has now come to raise our dues to cover the increases in our expenses.  In an effort to prevent large jumps in the cost of RSC membership every few years, we will be raising the annual membership dues by no less than $10.00 per year over the next few years beginning with the 2022 membership dues.

In the past year your membership dues have allowed the Rifle Sportsmen’s Club to:

• 1.        Host over 400 young 4-H shooters who train weekly on the RSC range.  We also host the 4-H county, state and regional competitions.
• 2.        Add over sixty (60) new steel targets to multiple areas of the range available for use by RSC membership.
• 3.        Add new steel target stands and rebuilding existing target stands.
• 4.        Rebuild the target butt system on the main rifle range, so the target backing can be easily replaced at any time.
• 5.        Dirt work and general maintenance across our facility to improve usability.
• 6.        Pay the increasing cost of our liability insurance, electrical service, porta-pot rental and servicing, trash service, and weed control.

The RSC Executive Committee appreciates each and every one of our members, and your commitment to the shooting sports.  We encourage you to be active and participate in the variety of shoots and events the RSC has to offer.  The dates and times for these functions can be found in the RSC event calendar by following this hyperlink: http://riflegunclub.com/calendar .

Please feel free to contact any of your executive committee members with questions or concerns.

Sincerely,

Matthew W. Starr

Executive Officer

There may be issues with the automatic gate not functioning due to power outages or mechanical issues.  Please note that the main gate may be manually opened with the silver pad lock, which has the same 4-digit code as the keypad.  As an alternative, there is an emergency green gate just to the east of the main gate, also with a silver pad lock on it.  You may enter or leave the range via this green gate if the main gate will not open.  Again, the combo is the same as the 4-digit keypad access code. 

In summary, should you become locked in or out of the range, look for either of the two silver pad locks and use the same code as the keypad.  

NOTE: The gold pad lock is for the land owner and his authorized personnel only and should not be tampered with.
