See the posted indoor range rules for all details of use (see website sbrkwildlife.ca).(The outdoor range is open year round (if weather accessible.) and check the website for any closure dates.)

Important note: If there is NO attendance* for the designated use for that time, other members can use the indoor range for their own shooting (firearm, archery or airgun, etc.). Note: If you go out the range door after the stated closing time, you will not get back in!!!!!

**Staggered volleys means firearm shooters shoots 10 rounds and then ceasefire to check targets, then stay back from the line while archery shooters shoots one flight of arrows (up to 10 at one go without retrieving.). Then archery does ceasefire and retrieves the arrows and then let the firearms shoot a volley of ten rounds. Repeat. (Note: archery gets the use of the right two lanes on staggered volley times if firearm shooters are also using the range)

*No attendance means that if it is an Archery/airguns listed day (for instance Thursday) and if no archery shooters show up then firearm shooters can shoot that day. If Archery/airgun shows up during their listed day, then firearms must vacate the range while the archery is shooting, it is not a shared day. This is reversed for firearm listed days, then archery would have to vacate.

NOTICE: We have had some issues of damage and theft of club property. Close the outside door behind you when you go into the indoor range. The ranges are private property. You are responsible if you let others in. Make sure to sign in before you shoot. If you have no Lake Country Wildlife membership, you have no insurance or authorisation and you cannot be there (except paid SUVisitor). Everyone needs a security fob key to enter either of the ranges unless executive authorised. Do not lend your fob key to non-members. Abuse of fob key use and/or not obeying range rules results in loss of membership and/or charges and/or costs. If you lose your fob key, you must report it immediately because it logs into the range and records your name.
