-Range Fee's (non-members) / Membership Cards (PWSA members)
 
Members of the Pueblo West Sportsman Association: 
 
Please bring your RED MEMBERSHIP CARD with you to class.  I will have a class roster that everyone will have to sign in on.  Due to prior problems I am required to see your 2005 PWSA membership card or collect a $50 range fee from you.  If you don't have your PWSA membership card on the first day of class you will be required to pay the $50 range fee.  NO EXCEPTIONS
 
Non-Members of the PWSA:
 
If you are not a member of the Pueblo West Sportsman Association range, I have to collect a $50 range fee from you on the first day of class.  If you have paid for the class via credit card, Tactical Response Inc has only charged your credit card the $300 for the course; I have the responsibility of collecting the $50 range fee that I have to give directly to the President of the Pueblo West Sportsman Association.  The range fee will be collected at the beginning of class during student sign in.  I will only be accepting PERSONAL CHECKS and MONEY ORDERS made out to the Pueblo West Sportsman Association for the $50 range fee. (CASH AND CREDIT CARDS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AS PAYMENT FOR THE $50 RANGE FEE)
 
 


-ACCESS TO THE RANGE
 
Non-Members of the PWSA please gather at the front gate (in a group) and wait for a PWSA member that is attending the Tactical Pistol Course to let you into the range.  DO NOT TRY TO FOLLOW OTHER PWSA MEMBERS THAT ARE NOT PART OF THE CLASS INTO THE RANGE!!!  Once inside the gate take the road to the right and go directly to Range #2 (second range from the right).  Please do not go to the other ranges un-escorted, PWSA has a strict policy that all non-members must be escorted by a member at all times. 
 
Remember this is a private range that is kind enough to let us use their facilities for this class.  Please respect other members of the range, remember we are guests of the PWSA (if there is a problem please let me know so I can get the problem resolved).  The only way I can keep hosting courses at the PWSA is if we have a good working relationship with the membership / board of the range.
 
PWSA MEMBERS:  Please let students in the front gate and direct them to range #2.  If someone would please man the front gate until all our students are in (as we have done it in the past) it would be greatly appreciated.
 
 
 
-LUNCH / START TIME
 
Please bring your lunch on all days, we will break for lunch, but there will not be enough time to leave the range to go and get lunch at a fast food restaurant.
 
We will start class at 9am on all days, please be on time.
 
We will have to pick up all trash and brass at the end of each day of shooting.
