The
next Board Meeting will be held on
Thursday, June 11th, 2020 at 7pm at the Skeet Range
Club House. In case of bad
weather an alternate location will be chosen and posted.
NOTICE: We have stopped taking PayPal payments. We have had several issues with how PayPal collects the payments and our ability to receive the full
amount, make corrections or refunds. Our credit card system is through Authorized.net and is just as secure as the PayPal app. We never see your card numbers just like with PayPal.
Thank you for your understanding.
Finally, some good news! Our pool will be opening on May 30th this year at 11 am. Also, we will be having our Fishing Rodeo Saturday June 6th see Lakes page for details.
Unfortunately, Because of the COVID-19 pandemic,
we will not be allowing any paid guest at the pool. Everyone at the pool must be a member, babysitter of a dependent minor (under the age of 13) or grandchild with
a grandparent (up to the age of 15).
We will not be conducting any swimming lessons this year.
Last year we expanded the concrete sun deck area around the pool originally intended to increase our capacity.
However, this year we will use the extra space to spread out the loungers, tables and chairs to offer a six feet space between families. Social
distancing will still be required for people who do not live in the same household, while in and out of the pool. Signs will be posted and
reminders will be announced.
Our staff will be cleaning all surfaces and restrooms regularly and maintaining the chemicals in the pool to a safe
level. These measures, along with some hopeful UV rays, should reduce our chances of spreading the virus. At this time, we have not set a number
for the total occupancy of the pool and surrounding areas. However, we will be monitoring this for the safety of everyone and we may refuse
admittance if overcrowding occurs.
During this challenging time, we are requiring everyone to follow all safety guidelines and executive
orders set by the governor while at the property.
Maintain social distancing of six feet apart and no groups more than 25 for shelter rentals and gatherings. We ask that everyone practice good
personal hygiene (wash your hands frequently). Try to focus on, single person activities like fishing, walking, hiking or riding. The 6 feet apart
rule also applies to the ranges and lakes. Camping is allowed by members only at this time, no out of state guest. Please be patient with us during
this period, we are all trying to figure out how to safely open things up.
Current members may find out their membership numbers from two places: 1) 2018 and newer membership card
2) Top right of the mailing address label on the post card sent out last year
It will look like 12-345. Please write your number down it will not change over the course of your membership.
NOTICE: Membership cards with pictures will be made at the new member orientation May 9th and 16th, 2020, and at the pool office after opening day. Membership cards will be required this year to use the the club facilities. Membership cards do not expire from year to year but are only active if dues have been paid and the member is in good standing. Thank You
ATTENTION: The Combination is listed on the Photo ID cards for the Ranges. To get the combination you will need to get a new picture ID card at the Pool during the hours of operation.
