Help Wanted - Part Time
AGC Range Safety Officers

 
The AGC is looking for Range Safety Officers (RSOs).  

RSOs are our AGC ambassadors who help members use our facilities safely.  Part time RSOs typically work a morning shift (4 - 8 hours) starting around 8 AM or an evening shift ending at 8 PM or sunset, whichever occurs first.  

We need dedicated professional people who can work either weekdays or weekends or both.  Current NRA Range Safety Officer certification is a plus. Candidates who are not certified, must be able to obtain certification.

Knowledge of AGC Range rules and the Policy and Procedures manual is a must.  These part-time positions start at $14.00 per hour.  

If you're interested e-mail AGC Executive Vice President Andrew Pelton:

 
Trustee Meeting Clarification
 
It has come to our attention that some members mistakenly believe that AGC Trustee and Special Meetings are open only to Trustees.

This is not true! Only Trustees of Charter Clubs can vote, but the meetings are open to all AGC club members.

Due to a small bore match on the Barnes Range,  Sunday, August 28, 2016, the use of firearms will be restricted to .22 caliber only from 9:00 AM until 2:30 PM.
