Hello Shooters,
Use of the skeet and trap fields have been steadily increasing, and social distancing
rules are working well. We are now taking the next step by opening the fields to
members and non-members beginning Tuesday evening, June 9th.
The following rules will remain in effect until further notice:
-6 feet of social distancing must be maintained at all times
-Face masks/coverings must be worn at all times
-A maximum of three (3) people allowed inside skeet shack at any given time
-Squad size limited to 5 shooters
-There will be a designated non-shooting person to push buttons
-There will be no lessons or outings until further notice
-Each shooter must have their own gun (no sharing)
-Shooters are expected to work from their vehicle (assemble/disassemble guns, etc.)
-A table will be set up on the porch for cash transactions
Thank you for your understanding, and hope to see you soon
Frank Harrington
Chairman
NOTICE: Lead shot is not allowed at Riverside Gun Club's skeet and trap fields.
This rule is strictly enforced. Only biodegrabale targets are used.
Hello shooters,
I hope all is well, and you are staying safe during these challenging times. In an effort to remain within guidelines, we will modify our holiday shoots. Each of the events will include the usual 5-stand, skeet and trap, however; lucky green clays, prizes and food will not be included. Although unfortunate, these steps are necessary at this time. Following is the holiday shoot schedule.
9:00 AM - 1:00 PM
Thanksgiving shoot: Sunday November 22nd
Christmas shoot: Sunday December 13th
New years shoot: Friday January 1st
Best

WE WELCOME ALL CLAY SHOOTERS! COME ON DOWN AND BREAK SOME CLAYS.
Tues & Thurs evenings (7:00 PM to 9:30 PM) and Sunday mornings (09:00 AM to 1:00 PM)
We are planning to have a full shoot (trap, skeet & five stand) at least once a month. As always,
we shoot year round. We welcome non-members and guests at skeet, trap and 5-stand.
Over the last two years we have taken on big projects in resurfacing both skeet fields. We have also
bought wireless controls for all three fields thanks to the generosity from our shooters. This year
we have completed the 5-stand expansion with 3 additional machines and a tower. This gives
us a total of 10 machines with many presentations of targets to shoot at.
Skeet & Trap
Riverside has a robust shotgun program with open shoots scheduled several times a week. We are a "green" facility, utilizing biodegradable targets and requiring steel shot. Lead shot is forbidden at Riverside. Our three fields are configured to support different shooting programs including skeet, trap and 5-stand.
Facilities
Three Shotgun Fields with remotely controlled automatic trap throwers. We also have lights on two fields for night shooting.
Upper Field configured for Skeet and 5-Stand (lighted)
Middle Field configured for Skeet & Trap (lighted)
Lower Field configured for Trap
Programs
Tuesday Night Shoots, Tuesdays 7:00p - 9:30p.
Thursday Night Shoots, Thursdays 7:00p - 9:30p.
Sunday Morning Shoots, Sundays 9:00a - 1:00p.
Wanna try it? We welcome members and non-members to our skeet and trap fields. If you are new to the sport or want some help we have NRA Certified Instructors to help you at no charge. We will even let you borrow a gun for your first time. Due to the increased number of new shooters to our program, we now ask that you email the Skeet & Trap chairman (fharrington@riversidegc.org) to make an appointment.
Events
Interested in throwing a Party or having a Corporate Event?
We are happy to offer our skeet and trap fields for corporate, birthday, bachelor and whatever events. There are NRA Certified Instructors to give safety classes, instruction and full supervision during the entire event. We supply the guns and everything else needed for lots of fun. Please contact Frank (fharrington@riversidegc.org) to discuss your event.
