July 2023 IDPA Match Announcement

,

“We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We’re going to live on! We’re going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!” – President Thomas Whitmore in Independence Day

This month we celebrate our nation’s birthday with some memorable scenes from great movies celebrating Independence Day! This month’s IDPA match will be on July 8. Dress in your Red, White and Blues.

As always I’m looking for a few volunteers to help setup on Friday afternoon before the match. If you can help I’ll waive your fee for the match. I’ll take the first 5 volunteers. Email me at [email protected] by July 6

Squadding will be open to club members for the first 48 hours and then will be opened to others.

We will be following the new IDPA rules this year. There are no longer exceptions for appendix carry shooters. However, please keep in mind if you have not shot from appendix carry before, our matches are not the first place you should be trying that. SSP shooters take note of the 15 round magazine change.

AM shooters will check in from 0745-0815 (mandatory safety brief at 0830) and compete until ~ 1200.

PM shooters will check in from 1115-1145 (mandatory safety brief at ~1200) and compete until ~ 1600.

Mandatory safety briefings will be held at Culver Range hard cover (near check-in). You must be at the Safety Brief to shoot the match.

The gate code for both gates is 1373# (include the hash when entering the code). Please only one vehicle at a time through the gates. Please follow the speed limits on the club roads. To get to Culver Range, enter through the Club main gate; turn right into the parking lot and through the second gate; proceed down and around the lake (road gets narrow in a few spots); take the second left past the lake up to the Culver Range. You can park in the lot in front of the covered shooting area or down along the access road on the right hand side.

If you still need to do a classifier before the state match please email me ahead of time at [email protected] and we will get you figured out.

Course of Fire: Five stages. Bring 100 rounds minimum.
Stage designs will be posted a week before the match.
Shooters agree to:

  • Follow all IDPA Rules and abide by the Shooters Code of Conduct. New rules can be found at

  • Follow all posted speed limits on Club property.
  • Non-Club members may only go to the Clubhouse and the range(s) used for IDPA. All other areas are off limits unless escorted by a Club member.
  • Open carry on Club grounds is NOT permitted. Do not ‘gun up’ at your vehicle; use the provided IDPA Safe Areas. If you are carrying when you arrive, see an IDPA Safety Officer at Registration to assist you.
