ATTENTION: Rifle Range Clean Up, Saturday, April 17th and Sunday, April 18th !!!

We’ll be starting at 9AM on both days and going no later than 3PM. If we have good weather and plenty of help we usually are done by noon on Sunday. So if you use the range or even if you don’t use the range, come on up and give us a hand.

We weren’t able to have clean up weekend last year, so there is a lot to do. Painting, replacing railroad ties, spreading stone, general cleanup of the ranges, building target frames, refreshing the sand in the backstops, ...

If you can, bring your yard and garden tools, power tools, chain saws, ... anything that you think might help.

Unfortunately, it’s going to be a challenge to feed you because of Covid, but I’ll figure something out.

So if you can give us some of your time on the 17th or 18th, or both, it will be very much appreciated.

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!

The Rifle Range Committee

ATTENTION: NEW KEYS for both the rifle range and plate racks are now available on Sunday mornings at the clubhouse.

Range keys are $3.00 and plate rack keys are $40.00 this year, due to the fact that they’ll be changing on Jan. 1, 2022.

Range keys are available through the gun shop or Dave Kistler.

Plate Rack keys will be available through Roger Lafleur or Dave Kistler.

ATTENTION: NOT getting your LSA email or our newsletter online?

Be sure to check your Junk email and also please update your email in your LSA member account if you've changed it recently. We had approximately 20 members who did not receive a 2021 renewal invoice because the email address in their member record was no longer valid.

General Membership Meetings are Cancelled until further notice!

ATTENTION: Work on the center berm at the RIFLE RANGE is now complete! The rifle range is now back to operating as two ranges again! There are two sets of flags back on the center storage shed. One set for the upper range and one for the lower range. Please use them accordingly.

ATTENTION: Because of the time we lost at the range due to Covid-19 the Plate Rack locks and the Rifle Range locks will not be changed until the last day of February, 2021. Keys for the racks and the range will not be available until Febuary 2021. We will have them on hand at the clubhouse on Sunday mornings. Remember the plate rack key will work for the 2 centerfire racks as well as for the 2 rimfire racks!

VERY IMPORTANT: You will need to show a Life or 2021 Range badge to purchase a plate rack key.

So if you would like to purchase a key, please see Dave Kistler or Roger Lafleur.

Members who don’t want to purchase a key can still use the plate racks on Sunday mornings for $5.00. Pay the on-duty RSO to unlock them.

Non-members may use them on Sunday mornings for $10.00.

The great thing about the plate racks is, you don't have to bring targets to the range, you don't have to wait for the green flag to check your targets and you get that instant, yet satisfying/gratifying sound of the target being knocked over! Almost like shooting trap or skeet except with a handgun! Come on down to the range, bring your favorite (non-magnum) handgun and give it a whirl. You can also use .22 rifles if you don't have a handgun.

Resetting your Member password

Recently several members have had problems with resetting their member passwords.

The “problem” most of the time is that they haven’t used the whole password that is returned from the system.

The temporary password will be your username which is also your email address, plus a random number. They need to be typed in as one word as shown in the email that the system sends you. Every time you reset the password, you must use the new one that the system sends you.

Don’t forget to change the password once you log in.

Also, when you log into your account you will also see your membership card if your account is paid up to date. You may also print this card if you want to laminate it. If you want it down to wallet size, you will have to try different size settings until you get it to the size you want.

Rifle range keys will be changing on March 1, 2021.

You may purchase a new key from the club secretary or the gun shop on Sunday mornings. You must show your current membership card and your 2021 Rifle Range badge. Price of the new key is still $3.00. Correct amount will be greatly appreciated.
