Club News & Announcements

The planned September 26 sporting clays fundraiser to benefit the TDSC youth clays team has been cancelled and will be rescheduled for some time in the spring of 2027.

The sporting clays target presentations at five (5) or six (6)
stations will be changed weekly to keep our shooters interested
and challenged. Some of the changes will be significant as you
may have noticed last week, and other changes just subtle enough
to make you wonder how you could have possibly missed.

We hope you will like the weekly rotational changes to our target
presentations. Bring a friend and enjoy a great day of shooting at
this magnificent first-class facility.

Skeet – reload/refill the high and low house trap machines after shooting.

Trap – reload/refill trap machine after shooting and carefully follow the opening and
closing procedures stapled to the inside of each trap house door.

do not leave unless another approved member is available to close. If you must leave
and there are no other members present approved to close, you must end the shooting
session.

TDSC is eliminating paper guest waivers and will begin using online digital
waivers. Guests can sign waivers three (3) ways:

1. Go to the homepage of the TDSC website (mytdsc.org) under the heading
   “The Club” there is a link to “Guest Waiver” where the guest can sign the
   digital form before even coming to the club.
2. Sign using a QR Code and smartphone. The QR Code and instructions are
   posted at the front desk in the clubhouse, at the room in the barn where golf
   carts are signed out, and at the indoor pistol meeting room.
3. Digital online guest waivers can also be signed using one of three (3) Guest
   Waiver Kiosks located at the front desk in the clubhouse, at the room in the
   barn where golf carts are signed out, and at the indoor pistol meeting room.

Even if a guest has previously signed a paper guest waiver, they must sign a digital
online waiver. Guests only need to sign the digital waiver once.

Please review the TDSC “Guest Policy”. Go to the homepage of the TDSC website
(mytdsc.org) under the heading “The Club” and there is a link to “Guest Policy”

Club Member agrees to uphold the Guest Policy and is responsible for their
guest’s compliance with all Club Rules and Regulations.

Any member allowing a guest to use club facilities without signing a waiver may
be subject to removal from club grounds with all privileges revoked.
