New Member Orientations

As a new, or returning lapsed member, you need to complete a New Member Orientation before your membership is approved. 

Orientations are conducted outdoors on the second and forth weekend of every month. The sessions are at 10:00 AM or 12:00 Noon each day (Saturday or Sunday). Please check the WCGC Website Calendar for exact dates and times.

Prior to coming to the range, you are required to view a New Member Powerpoint Presentation that you will attest to viewing when you arrive. You are still required to demonstrate your ability to safely handle a firearm. After doing so, we will give you a tour of the facilities. Orientations usually last one hour.

Please view presentation here: WCGC New Membership PowerPoint

Bring a firearm with you to do the safe-handling demonstration. Do not bring any ammunition with you to the orientation. If you plan on shooting after the orientation, please leave all ammunition secured in your vehicle.

This orientation is designed for new members (or those who have let their membership lapse). It covers the 4 basic rules of safe firearms handling, club and range specific rules/policies/procedures, and a hands on demonstration of proficiency of safe firearms handling. A tour of the facility and ranges is included.

Mandated for all new members. Encouraged for all current members.

Registration is required, as space is limited. Please email membership@wcgc.org to reserve a space for Orientation.
