Current Events
We are collecting unwrapped toys for the Whispering Pines Police “PACK THE CRUISER” event. Please consider bringing a new toy for this worthy cause; donations can be left on table alongside of our Christmas Tree in the Clubhouse. We are accepting donations at the clubhouse through the remainder of November; please refer to our Facebook page for more details.
Our last Monthly Members' Meeting will be on December 16th (at 7pm). In addition to our typical Covered Dish/Pot-Luck meal, we'll have our annual Holiday Gift Exchange Game. As a reminder, our game rules are:
-
Each participant brings one wrapped gift, with a targeted value between $20 to $25 dollars, to contribute to a common pool.
-
Each participant is assigned a ticket number which will determine their order for selecting a gift (a.k.a., "Turn-to-Pick").
-
The first participant selects a gift from the common pool; each opened gift must be shown to the group.
-
For each subsequent "Turn-to-Pick", the participant can either pick a gift from the common pool or "steal" a previously opened gift. If your gift is stolen, then you either pick a new gift from the common pool or steal another participant's gift.
-
The same gift cannot be stolen more than once in the same turn, nor more than once by the same person, nor more than three times during the game.
-
After all participants have had a "Turn-to-Pick", the first participant can swap their gift with any other participant who did not previously have a gift stollen. Then, the victim can steal any eligible gift from another participant until the stealing stops, at which time the game ends.
The MCWCC Board is interested in getting suggestions from the members about what they would like to see incorporated into the making your experience with this organization better.

EIGHT CONSIDERATIONS WHEN BRINGING GUESTS:
1) Remind everyone there is NO GUN HANDLING off of the Firing Line;
2) Governing principle: The RANGE stays COLD; only the Firing Line is HOT - the area behind the Line is ALWAYS COLD;
3) When shooting & moving, use holsters, or move the tables, to keep from hand-carrying guns off the Firing Line after finishing your string of fire;
4) Confirm all guest waivers are completed;
5) If you have a big crowd, consider asking for help from the MCWCC RSO Team (remember our guidance is no more guests than you can reasonably oversee);
6) Any “Guest RSOs” should request to be familiarized with our Club Rules by one of our CRSOs;
7) If you are a member who routinely brings guests, we invite you to become a Club RSO; and,
8) If you have brought the same guest out three or more times, encourage them to join the club.
We now offer an on-line practice assessment, different from the annual exam: This assessment IS NOT for membership application or renewal it is ONLY for practice. For the membership application or renewal test use the link on step 2 of the membership application process for new and current members find on the Membership page.
