Is the range open to the public?​​​

• ​Only members and member-attended guests are granted access to the firing line. If you don’t know any of our members but would like to visit the range as a spectator, please contact us – we’d love the opportunity to give you a tour of our facility! Please note that everyone visiting ERGC property will be required to sign a liability waiver, regardless of whether they’re shooting or spectating.

Can members bring guests?

• Guest – Limit of two non-family guests per membership. A guest is a member-sponsored shooter who has signed the required liability waiver, intends to participate in shooting activities, and has paid the associated fee. After paying their guest fee, guests are issued a wrist band. The wrist band identifies the person as authorized to shoot under member supervision. The guest must display the wrist bands at all times while at the range. Members and guests cannot shoot at the same time. The member must at all times be in a position and reach to stop the guest from an unsafe act. Children of the member 18 years or older fall under the guest category. Sponsoring member will ensure guests comply.

• Spectator – A spectator is a non-shooting guest who may or may not be accompanied by a member i.e. someone looking at the facilities or spectating a match and is not required to pay the guest fee. They will wear hearing and eye protection as required by range rules and will not participate in any type of shooting activities unless guest requirements are met.

• Spectators without a member sponsor will complete a liability waiver and be continually escorted by the RSO during the range orientation.

• Spectator with a member sponsor will complete a liability waiver and be escorted by the member during his/her visit of the range.

• Note: It is the member’s responsibility to ensure all guests and spectators report directly to the RSO upon entering the range. All Guests and Spectators are required to sign a Liability Waiver form.

Are children allowed?​

• All children less than 18 years of age must be under adult supervision at all times while inside the range perimeter. Adult (an adult member, parent, or guardian) supervision while the minor is shooting means the supervising adult must be within arm’s reach to take control of the firearm, if necessary.

• Children will not be left unsupervised on range property. Children found unsupervised will be escorted to the adult parent or guardian and asked to leave the property for the safety of the children and others using the facility.
