Walter Ranz Memorial Shooting Park
This has been a long time come for the Fertile Conservation Club. The board has been working on getting a shooting range in the works for many years, but with the surge in High School Trapshooting, it has been thrown in high gear the last couple of years.
We are getting close to wrapping up the throwing houses and the walkways. We hope to wrap up wrapping and putting doors on the houses and be ready to throw clays this coming spring. We will still have many more things to do, but the Fertile-Beltrami High School Trap team will be shooting this spring at the site.
We would like to thank the many volunteers that have spent many hours, equipment, and sweat to get us this far. We are close and will be having some membership drives and open house this coming fall. Please watch for more information on the website and Facebook page.
Weather & Road Update: The Rifle range & Trap is currently open for the Fertile-Beltrami High School trap team under club supervision until the road gets better.
Membership:
