Old Fort Gun Club Membership
Joining the Old Fort Gun Club is a very simple process. Attend one of our Club meetings. We meet the first Thursday of each month, check our club calendar for the dates. Fill out your OFGC New Membership Application 2023 form and then pay the Membership Fee and Initiation fee.
The meeting will start at the hour called for on our calendar or as announced on our Facebook page. During the meeting, we will ask you to introduce yourself and tell us a little bit about your shooting interests and why you want to join the club. Then the attending Club members will vote on your membership. After the meeting you will receive the range rules and a temporary membership card. If you join during a monthly meeting you will receive your printed card in the mail, if you mail in your new membership application you will receive your cards following the next monthly meeting you are voted on.
