Use of Buckshot on the Ranges

The board is reviewing the range rules for the use of buckshot at the club. At the board meeting in January, they will determine which range buckshot can be used. Until then, the Range Safety Officer has ordered that NO BUCKSHOT can be use on any ranges.

Life-Time Membership

With the introduction of a new discipline, we are looking for ways to add improvements to the existing clays/trap area.  We are offering 15 individual life-time memberships for $1000 each.  If you have already renewed for 2025, just subtract what you have already paid.  While we have a solid relationship with the Town of Fort White, the lease is month to month and revisited every year.  Please email membership@fortwhitegunclub.org if you would like to get a lifetime membership or have questions.

Membership

Reminder: General membership renewal is open. Please renew before December 31st to avoid interruption of access to the club.
