Emergency Medical Equipment Training
The Club has purchased an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) and blood trauma kits for the range. A Club member, who is a Paramedic with Benton County Fire District 1, will be at the Thursday, October 5,2023 general membership meeting to give an overview on the use of the new equipment. The equipment comes with instructions for their use, the overview will tell you what to expect without the stress of an actual incident.
The AED box is alarmed with signage identifying what it is. It will be mounted in the sign-in trailer. Do not open the box unless it is actually needed; in doing so will require an expensive recertification, taking the equipment out of service for a length of time.
The blood trauma kits were to be mounted on the firing line; the box is not weather proof. The trauma kits will be in the sign-in trailer There are no First Aid supplies in the trauma box. A first aid kit is in the sign-in trailer, stocked with standard First Aid supplies.
Signs will be mounted at each safety system switch stating the AED and Blood Trauma kits are in the sign-in trailer.
Autumn Safety At The Range
There is a disconcerting trend of increased safety contacts at the range in the fall when folks are preparing for hunting season.
If you’re planning to go to the range for sight-in and practice before hunting season, it is strongly advised that you review the range rules and safety guidelines thoroughly. Even if you are an experienced shooter, a quick refresher on safety protocols is always beneficial. Range Rules
Range safety rules are in place to protect not only the shooters but also those around them. It is the responsibility of each individual to be aware of and follow these rules diligently.

Saturday at the range
The club had a full line of 13 shooters including one junior and three wome at the CMP Sporting Rifle match this morning. At the work party following the match, the storage container was cleaned and painted. Some of the crushed concrete was removed on the firing line and overlaid with pea gravel. Thank you to all that provided their labor and equipment to make this wonderful improvement to the 50 yd range.
