⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

Happy days are here again. (Well nearly 🤔)

I’m please to announce that we will be opening our doors once again on Tuesday the 13th April as long there are no changes in the government guidelines. We will be opening our normal opening hours (check our Facebook page and website for details). 

COVID-19 rules will still apply within the club in-line with government legislation. The rules will be exactly the same before we had to close our doors. 

* Social distancing must be adhered to in all areas.
* Hands must be sanitised on entering the club (Sanitiser station located at entrance of club).
* Masks MUST be worn on entering the club.
* The 1m+ with masks rule. Masks must be worn at all times within the following areas : Reception, 15m range and the 10m target range. 
* The 2m rule within the 50m area, masks most be worn when not seated at your shooting lane. 
* Cafe will be closed until restrictions are lifted (on or around 12th May).
* All shooters must bring there own equipment (ie quick fill adapters and shooting bag, etc) as we are unable to provide these under government restrictions.
* Only one person is allowed on a shooting lane at any time, and under no circumstances can two persons interact on a single shooting lane.
* All government social distancing rules must be adhered to. 

These rules must be followed in order for us to remain open, and also prevent any possible fines. Anyone caught not adhering to these rules maybe asked to leave the club and referred to the committee for possible further sanctions.

These rules will ease as more restrictions are lifted in conjunction with the governments timeline. 

Unfortunately we will only be open to Members of RAGC and NOT the general public (for now) in order for us to manage the numbers on site, and adhere to government guidelines. All membership can be renewed on site if needed, also new memberships are available at this current time. 

In order to shoot, the booking system will continue to be in place until further notice, you must be booked in and pay prior to arrival, this will help us manage number on site and also secure your shooting lane. This can be done by calling the club when open. 

📜Note from the Chairman📜
—————————————————
As a non for profit club, all our revenue raised is reinvested back into the club on upgrading the facilities and keeping memberships and range fees down.

We, the committee, have managed to keep the wolf from the door throughout these troubling times of Zero income while closed, and still maintains our ethos of a club for its Members. 

Although at this present time we are still governed as to COVID-19 social distancing rules, these will not be around for much longer (one hopes) and we can get back to shooting comps, both club and national, and welcoming new and old shooter to the sport we all love and love to talk about. 

The Committee and Staff have been working tirelessly, both improving the facilities and managing the financials while closed to make sure you all have a club to come back to with a fantastic shooting environment for all levels of shooters. We will continue to work to improve and grow in order to become one, if not the best club in the Northwest, and a club, which as a member, you can be proud to have a RAGC membership card in your pocket. 

We are looking forward to opening our doors once again to all our fantastic members, so that they can enjoy a safe and friendly shooting environment, and can’t wait to hear the sound of lead going down range. 👍🏻

So on behalf of myself, The Committee and Staff. Keep safe and shoot safe. 😊
