It would help demonstrate to membership that we are in fact a club, and not a business run by people who are not good at running a bussiness.
Having the range open to the public does help, I believe in being seen as a community asset, thus aiding in justifying its existence.


Did it change? I thought you still could bring guests to the ranges not open to the public?


You are correct.

I would have to disagree on that one. Every time I've had RSO on the 200 it's been packed, people lined up waiting for a lane.

I sit corrected. Apparently it's more popular than it was when I've been out there.
Nothing to see here. Continue swimming.

I think there is a new push for long range shooting.

Nope. 200 yards but being off because it is meters.

I guess it just threw me off when Rotary12 mentioned shooting long range in the same thread.

200m may be the longest range available at OGC, but it isn't "long range" anywhere... :roll:
