They get members to build them but the wood and screws have to be bought.
They could make members bring their own frames just like the rest of the clubs, some members do this already but they don't complain about the buck extra.
It is like some one above said, it is all in what your looking for, if you want 400 to 600 yard ranges then BB will never have that.
A member at BB can bring two guests on each visit with no limit per year and they only pay $5 each, the membership is limited but there is room yet for more on the cap.
It is a small membership so your not falling over each other to shoot, some days get filled but if there isn't a sanctioned event (which 95% are hunter safety for kids) there is plenty of room to shoot.
But if you want 300 acres with 600 yard ranges then I suggest you go to ERSC or Gogher.

I realize that the extra money goes towards improving the club...not a problem. I was just disclosing the true costs of membership. OGC doesn't ask for another dime beyond your membership fee, however their work requirement of 18 hours is mandatory but guests (up to 3) pay nothing when accompanied by a member during non-public hours. Just saying......
