New Ranges, Sharing and Closings:

Our new special-purpose bays for use only during USPSA, IDPA, and other scheduled events got quite a work-out in 2011 and we've got even bigger plans for 2012!  SKSC shows our support for our area police and sheriffs departments who will also use these ranges during the year.  While the special-purpose bays will not be available for members on a daily basis, they will allow our members to continue to shoot in the regular bays even during scheduled events.  Some special events may still require that ranges, such as the 200-meter, be shared rather than closed.  Check the club calendar for ranges that may be closed, or shared before you come out to shoot.

  • Trap and Skeet ranges will be closed for these Sundays:

    • December 25 - Christmas

    • January 1, 2012 - New Year's Day
