Anyone that wants a free copy of the 2019 fishing regs instead of paying $3 for it when buying your license can either print one off of the Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission website or stop at rep. George Dunlap's office for a free copy.
If you did not send a SASE with your dues or otherwise did not get your membership card, they are kept in the clubhouse medicine cabinet near the phone. Come to a meeting and ask, come when an activity is going on in the clubhouse, or have someone else let you in to the clubhouse.

The application period will remain open until Feb. 23, 2019, or until 1,000 applications are received, whichever occurs first.
Medical Marjuana
If you are hurting and are considering this approach, be aware that you can get a card for $50 but Federal Law requires you do not have any guns in your household. PA law does not cover this at this time. If you do not want to run the risk of a federal raid, you might want to consider. Check with Sam Petrill or click on internet if you have questions. Another article about the dangers of marjuana are here.

Gate and clubhouse locks will be changed on January 31. You need to pay your dues before then to get the new code.
Vehicles coming down to the gate have the right of way. Vehicles entering must not enter or must back down to give vehicles leaving room to exit. Hopefully this will prevent damaging the sides or drainage of the paved way. Thank you for your help.
Any shotshell ammo from pistol, rifle or shotgun can be used on the shotgun range (to right of rifle range). Single projectile cannot. This is sort of a new thing so enjoy.
The archery door is there to protect the straw (and shade the black snake). Please open the door fully when using the range, put your targets in front of the hay (it serves as a backstop) and please do not shoot the door. Probably just a brain fart, but someone actually was shooting targets in front of the door and it has a few extra holes now.
We do not want anyone to be hurt while operating our equipment and machinery. We will continue to keep a logbook of those who are authorized to operate certain machinery. If you wish to be qualified, let any officer or Kevin Kennelty know, and you will either be trained at that time or we will schedule group classes as convenient.
All shooting ranges are closed at SUNSET. Please abide by that rule, as it might not take much for neighbors to sign a petition to close us down. Anyone caught shooting after sunset might have their membership card taken and will have to come to a board meeting and explain their reasoning. Ejection from the club is a real possibility.
If you have any ideas, changes, or improvements to the facility; you are encouraged to give them to any officer for board consideration. Thank you in advance for your input.
Manor and Irwin Police will be qualifying on our ranges at published times. The ranges they are on will be closed during their shooting. They have paid dues. An ISA representative will be in attendance in case you have any questions.
Please shoot on the proper ranges. Pistols and rim fire 22 rifles only on the pistol ranges. Rifles on the rifle range. Shotshells on the new shotgun range (right of the rifle range) and if shooting trap on the silhoutte range, please shoot from center to right only. Please pick up your shells on the rifle range. Please don't leave them for someone else to slip or fall and injure themselves.
Membership in ISA is an important venture. The ability to shoot rifles, pistols, muzzle loaders, shotguns, and/or arrows to sharpen your skills and to give you the satisfaction of being "On Target" is valuable. Your membership includes the right of your "significant other" and/or ANY child under 18 years of age to participate with member present. Other family members and guests have to become members. We do have several events that are open to the public, and for these events, invite those not included in your membership and plan ahead for a good time.
Sell, Buy or Trade - An ISA member and have something you don't use anymore? Want something you really need? Have something you wish to trade. To sell, buy or trade, send info and contact person to ourisanews@gmail.com.
What's Broken? - Anyone noting something that needs fixing or attention please let Kevin Kennelty or one of our officers know. We want to make sure our facility stays viable, respectable, and usable.
Safety/Accidents - Please report any safety violations or accidents to one of our principal officers. The officers and board members need to review and have correct facts to respond to media, members, and public questions. Rumors travel fast and can be distorted. We are not looking for scapegoats or reasons to act against any members. Accidents happen, we all have done our share. If something can be done reasonably to correct a problem, be assured it will be done. Thank you.
