Alternate Routes to NSC to Avoid Construction Traffic
Road construction on Culebra Rd./Hwy. 471 along the north side of the National Shooting Complex property has significantly slowed down traffic coming to the complex.

To prevent our shooters from getting caught in the construction zone and missing a shoot time, we have prepared a map of the area showing where the construction zone is and alternate routes to the complex from different directions. Please review the map to find the best approach … [Read more...]

Since 1999, it has raised more than $14 million for Ronald McDonald House Charities. And since that … [Read more...]

Many of us have had the opportunity to go to a fundraising event through the years, but one recent fundraiser stands out for its success. Last April a single mother of two children went to her doctor for a standard checkup. Raven is a 35-year-old woman with no visible health concerns or problems.
