USPSA Classifier Matches!
USPSA classifier matches will be run during the summer months.
The idea is to shoot 4 classifiers, get in and get out before it gets too warm and we're all "lobsterfied".
So if you are able come on up north and join us through September and get some classification action in!
Link to first match below, registration opens on the 6th.

smoldering or burning. There are water packs in the RSO area for fire fighting when needed.
