Range Update for November 7-November 9, 2025
New Upper Range Schedule has been released effective November 2025. You can view that on our new Upper Range Schedule webpage by navigating to the menu above and clicking Range > Upper Range Schedule. Alternatively you can access it by clicking here: Upper Range Schedule
Full Members must check in with the Range Shack Friday-Sunday. Weekdays follow the posted schedule as there are days when the Shotgun range is open and the upper rifle range is closed, and vice versa.
Also be sure to know the 4th rule of gun safety: Know what your target is and what is beyond it.
We have have some storage units up on the range that store our steel silhouette targets that are encase in cinder blocks and have some protective shielding in front of them. The shields are not targets, but protective barriers! They are not AR500 rated, so please don’t shoot them!
We will be posting more on this subject later, but for now please be knowledgeable about what you are shooting at by shooting only your targets.
Thank you!
Happy 250th Birthday Marines!

A MESSAGE FROM THE COMMANDANT OF THE MARINE CORPS
Two hundred and fifty years ago, before our Nation declared its independence, a small group of men gathered in Philadelphia and formed a Corps of Marines. From that moment, our story has been bound to the story of America itself. A quarter of a millennium later, Marines remain at the center of our Nation’s defense. Ready to fight, ready to win, and ready to uphold the trust placed in us since 1775.
Across centuries, Marines have fought on distant shores and in desperate battles, earning a reputation for discipline, toughness, and valor. From the Revolution to the World Wars, from Chapultepec to today’s operations across the globe, every generation has proven worthy of the title Marine. They secured liberty, defended allies, and carried forward the promise of a free Nation, and a free world. We are the heirs of that legacy, and we are its stewards.
This anniversary reminds us that our standards are the foundation of our Corps. Honor, Courage, and Commitment are not abstractions, but the code that binds us to one another and to all who went before. Every Marine, in every clime and place, must hold true to these values. The conflicts ahead will demand nothing less.
I could not be prouder of the Marines I see serving today. At home, at sea, and across the globe, you carry forward our proud traditions with skill and ferocity. It is your discipline, initiative, and fighting spirit that anchor our Corps. The battles of the next 250 years will challenge us in new ways, but I have no doubt we will prevail. Happy Birthday Marines!
