Latest News and Information

On this page we attempt to keep you up-to-date on the latest news and information concerning temporary changes in range hours and/or closures, anticipated parking limitations, and upcoming range events such as competitions and courses. Please check back often to keep abreast of this news and information, which also is posted on our Calendar page in the Directory on your left. Thank you for your interest.

 Our Pistol Safety courses are held on two consecutive Saturdays, usually from 12:00 noon to 4:00 p.m. On occasion, the course may be held on two consecutive Sundays, or even at other times, subject to participants' needs. Please go here for additional information about the course.

 For Women Only - Introduction to Light Rifle Shooting course. The next course is scheduled for the last two Saturday mornings in October and the first two Saturday mornings in November, 2010 (subject to demand). Please go here for additional information about the course.

Please note:

• Because the Coyne Park Range is located indoors, the weather generally has no effect on the range’s operating schedule. However, severe weather conditions (that may make driving hazardous, for example) could modify that schedule. Therefore, when adverse weather conditions exist or are anticipated please call the range to find out if the schedule has been modified. Range closure information is also provided to WFAS radio, which broadcasts on 1230 AM and 103.9 FM.

• Parking in our lot becomes difficult, if not impossible, during the ‘summer season’ when we are sharing the parking lot with residents using basketball courts and baseball fields in the immediate area. However, parking on side streets is virtually always available so please do not be dissuaded if, on these occasions, you do not get parking in our lot.
  
  Also, when there are activities at the senior center adjoining our lot there is sometimes a spillover of cars from their parking lot into ours, giving the false impression that we are so busy that you will have a long wait for a port (we have learned that some people have turned away as a result). It is rare that we cannot accommodate you without a need for you to wait and even in such cases the waiting period is reasonably short. And, while you are waiting you can sit and relax, read a magazine, enjoy a cup of coffee or a cold beverage, or chat with other shooters.
