If your membership card indicates that your status is Prospective, then you need to attend an Orientation. Orientation is generally done once a month. Currently there are 27 members who need to attend Orientation before they will receive the gate code and Active Status. Prospective members will receive an email when there is going to be an Orientation. They can also look for Orientation events in the Club News and on the Calendar. 

If your membership card indicates Pending then there is information missing on your application. Often this is an adequate picture. The picture should be of your head and shoulders  and uploaded to your account in Jpeg format. Pictures of PAL cards, or you fishing, hunting or shooting are not acceptable. 

Many of our those currently with Pending status are multi-year members who have been carried over into our new membership system. Some have uploaded ID photos, but have not updated the rest of their membership information or signed the new waiver. Pending members can log in to their membership file and update this info, after which you will receive the gate code. 

Please note that an attempt or attempts have been made to contact multi-year members.

REOPENING OF THE RANGE

With the improvement in fire status, some rain and the removal of the ATV ban, we are going to reopen the SJRGC facilities on Friday, August 22nd. 

The fire ban is still in effect and we are not out of risk of fires, so everyone using the club facilities needs to remain vigilant.

Thanks for your patience.

Dear Members/Users - out of an abundance of caution, in the interest of public safety and the environment - we are suspending all use of the SJRGC facilities for a period of 2 weeks. The club will be closed as of 00.00 hours on Wednesday August 13 and will remain closed until at least 23:59 hours on Wednesday August 27, 2025.

This means that all scheduled shoots for IDPA, IPSC, Sporting Clays, Trap, Archery and Steel Challenge during this period are cancelled. Most of these groups had already postponed their activities for the near future. Orientation scheduled for August 16 is also cancelled.

 We will evaluate reopening our facilities as conditions evolve, with the goal of limiting the downtime as much as we can.

 Thank you for your understanding.

The St John’s Rod and Gun Club hosted a Regatta Day shoot on Saturday, August 2, 2025. The day included a 75 target sporting clays course and lunch. It was a lovely warm summer day with many interesting target presentations including kangaroo rabbits that part of the time were flying through the air.

HOA was Billy with 66. At the head of 1st class was Jake at 65, 2nd class was Andrew at 55 and 3rd Spence with 45.  Top lady shooter was Judi with 41, senior was Dave with 62 and Junior was Joseph with a 22.

Everyone including three guests had a great time. Prizes were awarded to all the winners kindly donated by Cejay of Quality Auto Brokers. Many thanks to everyone who helped out.
