Our grounds include a cleared range which is available to members and to the public during club sanctioned events. There is a large wooded area and an archery range is in development. Members of the Yates County Sheriff's Department and the Penn Yan Village Police Department use the range for their regular qualifications. Our Trap Machine is portable and may be used by the members. Members may reserve the grounds and clubhouse for private events upon approval from our Directors. Throughout the year we offer several special shooting events Open to the Public, courses for firearms skills and safety, and our Annual Open House in June.
