Hello Range and CVOA Members,
Weekly 5 Stand Shoots every Saturday 9am to noon, rain or shine. Trap Shoots every Sunday 9am to noon, weather permitting. I will post Trap cancelations due to weather on our Facebook page, CVOA Shooting Range, and our website, cvoarange.com. Come early to get a spot! The public and guests are welcome. These are a non-competitive shoots for fun and practice. If you are new to these sports, this is a perfect way to learn!
The new Women's Shooting Group will meet on Tuesday, July 11th and 25th from 4pm to 6pm. We will explore a different shooting sport at each meeting. Trap, Archery, Pistol, and Rifle. Even if you don't have the equipment, we'll share. The June 27th Archery was cancelled due to rain. July 11th we will explore Archery. We'll start with close,10yard shots and work our way back to the 30 yard shots. There is no additional fee for the archery. The Range has some youth bows and arrows that can be loaned out if you do not have your own. Drop me an email if you'd like to attend, but don't have the right equipment so I can make sure we have enough to share. July 25th we'll try out the Pistol Range. Bring a friend. Guests welcome for a $10/day fee. (remember: is it only $40 to join, or $30 if your guest is already a member of CVOA, but not the range)
The concrete pads and electrical work is complete and we are just awaiting the installation of the new electric gate! We'll send out details on its use shortly. Accessing the Range will be much easier!
Range Member Lou Alfieri is looking to restart the Wednesday 5 Stand Shoots. He is interested in trying an afternoon shoot starting at 4pm to 7pm or until sundown. Please send me a quick email if that might interest you, too. dpstone32@gmail.com. Lou would like to start by July 12th.
The Introduction to Handgun and USCCA Concealed Carry courses were a big success!
"That was an A+ absolutely awesome class. Two incredible instructors, balancing extreme safety with politeness. Balancing directness with good listening. Excellent teaching skills because it went step-by-step, progressively, moving, slowly, mastering each level before going onto the next!" -GM
"I would like to relate to you how much I appreciated this training. Both days were stupendous!!The instructors were articulate, relatable, poised, obviously highly qualified, and above all, safety comes first!!
I wish every person using a firearm took these courses!" -CP
I've gotten very positive feedback from the participants and the instructors. So much so, we are looking to bring more education courses to the Range. Some options include repeat of the Intro to Handgun, a first aid course Stop the Bleed, and a Range Safety Officer course. We'll keep you informed and please let me know if you might be interested in any of these options.
As always, your help and participation is greatly appreciated! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me.
