We have many Police and Sheriff's departments using our club for training and qualifications. We even have NCIS and the Hi-way Patrol using our club ranges and training bays.

This is exactly why I refuse to join any of the clubs around here. They are always letting the cops use an entire range to the exclusion of everyone else, and, for free!

Much to our chagrin, a gaggle of cops had the entire 200 yard range closed off. They were standing around a cop SUV parked all the way down by the targets, BSing and they refused to move or leave.
The weekends are a madhouse, members trying to use the ranges while several are closed off for competitions. All of that for a mere $600.00 per year!
The final topper, they promised the yearly dues would go down once they reached their membership goals. But they reached their goal, they claimed the club needed too many improvements to lower the dues.
No thanks!
