We're trying to figure out how to raise some money for our city managed shooting range. We have 100/200 yd. rifle, 50 yard rifle/pistol, 25 yard rifle/pistol and a couple of 7 yard pistol benches available. Our cement benches are covered, we have sound proofing in the roof and we provide chairs, spotting scopes, ear and eye protection, a target (additional targets are $.25 each) and target stands and a porta potty. Our fees to shoot are $10 for a season pass (May to Novermber) and $3 for a daily pass. Most folks opt for the season pass. The range masters are volunteers (we get a free pass). We've been told we have to come up with some way to generate more money next year and we're concerned that raising fees might push shooters back into shooting everywhere else. We've worked hard to turn this range into a good asset for the community.
What do the ranges you folks shoot at cost? Please provide general location. We're in N. Idaho - the city is Sandpoint.
