All are welcome to Marbletown Sportsmens Club Sight-in Day, 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 14, at 95 Scarawan Road, Stone Ridge. Sight-in day provides the service of having a rifle, shotgun, or other firearm adjusted for accuracy before the hunting season begins. The program is run by NRA Certified Range Safety Officer Laurence Major who helps promote and ensure safety is followed by all participants during club activities on the range. Marbletown Sight-in Day takes place annually the Saturday before the official NYS Southern Zone season begins, this year, Saturday, Nov. 21-Sunday, Dec. 13. MSC Sight-in Day is open to members and nonmembers. The event provides shooters with three distance targets at 25, 50 and 100 yards to safely sight in their handguns and rifles. Education is provided for first time participants on safe handling and discharging their guns. Participants are also welcomed to become members and encouraged to be involved with club activities. Helpers are always available, and there is no charge for the event.
MSC also offers NRA certified hunter safety courses, special training for their Women On Target Program and free weekly youth programs, April-September. For more information, visit marbletownsportsmensclub.org.
