Thanks for your interest in the
Tacoma Rifle and Revolver Club (TRRC)! We are a community club that promotes the
shooting sports, located at 8503 Chambers Creek Road West in
University Place, Washington. We are situated on a 50-acre
parcel of land in what has been described as a park-like
setting. The shooting facilities include ranges for
smallbore, centerfire, pistol, airgun, and archery; there
are no shotgun facilities. All firing points are covered for
year-round comfort and there is a full-time resident manager
onsite. A Range Safety Officer (RSO) program was recently
put into operation.
Membership is open to U.S.
citizens who are at least 18 years of age. Annual membership
dues are $140 for one year (365 days), and a spousal
membership is only $20 more. All prospective new members are
required to take a free, conducted, 20-minute tour of the
facilities before being allowed to join. This tour is given
every Saturday morning at 9:30 AM sharp. At the completion
of the tour, individuals may join by providing some basic
identification information, photo ID, a statement that he/she is familiar
with the basic rules of firearms safety, and payment. Once
this is complete, the applicant becomes a full voting member
of TRRC and may begin using the shooting facilities
immediately. We accept cash, personal checks,
Visa, and MasterCard as forms of payment
At the time of sign-up, new
members are provided an access card that opens a locked gate
at the front entrance, and members are free to come and go
at will. In addition, they are also provided the latest
issue(s) of the TRRC newsletter which provides:
-
the rules and regulations
of the club
-
the names, phone numbers,
and email addresses of all TRRC officers and Board
members
-
the general range schedule
of planned formal match events
-
the hours of each day
during which firearms may be shot.
In the twelve months of
membership, all members have the opportunity to reduce the
cost of their renewal fee by up to $80, thereby reducing the
amount due at renewal time to as little as $60. This is
usually done by participating in work parties (for a credit
of $10/hour worked), by signing up new members (for a credit
of $40 per new member), or by volunteering time or talents
on any of a number of projects or committees.
