Bring a ground cloth, (i.e.: Tarp, blanket, quilt or shooting mat).  

Use of the M1 rifles and ammunition will be included in the Clinic Fee of $40.00.

All participants must apply by US Mail, we will phone you to confirm your application. People showing up at the range may participate, if there is range space available and they have the required affidavit Notarized.

NOTICE: Clinic participants over 18 years old, will have to send the enclosed CMP Affidavit in with their Clinic Application. The CMP Affidavit will have to be notarized before sending it in with the application. If you bring it to the range on clinic day and it is not notarized you will not be able to participate in the clinic and you will forfeit the clinic fees.  We will accept cancellations if made before May 25, 2009. Any participant that does not show the day of the event (without prior notice as indicated) forfeits the Clinic Fee.
