Committee Reports
Old Business
- Rifle Sight-in & Range Safety Officer Requirements: Many members indicated their interest in having a rifle sight in at one of the Camp Pendleton ranges; the Pendleton Sportsman's Club is currently limited and still needs members qualified as Range Safety Officers (RSO) and Officers-in-Charge (OIC) by the Base. If we do not have a qualified RSO & OIC a range cannot be scheduled. The first step is to complete the Base on-line / CD training; these CDs are available on the Pendleton Sportsman's Club website, then complete the one day RSO class given the 1st Friday of each month in the Base Main Theater. The NRA RSO course is also required and the Pendleton Sportsman's Club will pay for the NRA RSO course. Please contact Dennis by email if you have any questions. hollywoodusmc@earthlink.net
- Green Head Duck Club. The members of this Club again hosted the Camp Pendleton Sportsman's Club, active duty military personnel, the Wounded Warriors and their families and provided free access to all their facilities on Saturday 9 February 2008 that included:
Archery- If you wish to sharpen up your archery skills and receive some expert coaching, fill out the application for the El Toro-Pendleton Archers (ETPA) Club, on the Club website. The Club has a 14-target 3D-field range and a practice area with targets ranging from 10 to 80 yards. The 3D targets are a challenge covering critters from Woodchuck to Elk. The ETPA Club members willingly provide expert guidance and archery equipment knowledge. The ETPA also sponsors 3D tournaments as well as charity events. The SOI archery range is open daily from dawn to dusk. Membership in the El Toro-Pendleton Archers Club is free for all Active Duty and Retired military.
