WHAT IS GOING ON At ISA
In honor of our 70th, a T shirt has been conceived. The order form can be printed, filled out and included with the amount requested. Time is short as our 70th Annivesary Open House on September 24th is right around the corner. Would it not be nice if our members sported their T shirt so others would recognize us.

Westmoreland County Sportsman's League could use help in manning their booth to promote our 2nd Amendment rights. Westmoreland County fairgrounds August 18 through 26, 2017. Shifts at 8-12 AM, 12-6 PM, and 6-10 PM. Work party credit will be given. Contact Smokey Burdin at 724-396-9627 if you are interested.
Please clean up shell casings on the rifle range. It should be easy as the tools are there to do so and the concrete floor helps. Too many casings are found as the shooting has expanded due to the nicer weather. It not only looks untidy, it could be a safety hazard causing falls or muscle strains.
Shooting times - To keep from disturbing the neighbors, the start time on our ranges have been changed. The ranges will be open from 8 AM to Sunset Monday through Saturday and 12 noon to Sunset on Sunday. Not sure of Sunset?...check your weather station/news station, your PA Hunting and Trapping Digest, or online.
Work Parties - An evening work party will be held every Wednesday 5 to 7 PM. Once each month a daytime work party will be held from 9-11 AM on the 2nd Wednesday. Ranges will be closed during any work party schedule. Also work party credit will be given upon 4 meeting attendances, so you could attend only 4 meetings to meet your one required work party and pay for the other two, or all meetings to get your three work party credits. We would rather you pitch in, roll up your sleeves, and help in a work party, but understand if you must do an alternate.
Range Safety Rules - After a lot of consideration and thought, your board has come up with "Range Safety Rules". This should eliminate any lack of guidelines or confusion on what is expected. Get your copy by clicking on Range Safety Rules or asking one of our officers.
Please use your guns on proper ranges. Pistols and rim fire 22 rifles only on the pistol ranges. Rifles on the rifle range. Shotguns on the new shotgun range (on the right of the rifle range) and if shooting trap (from center to right only) on the silhoutte range. Please pick up your shells on the rifle range. Don't leave them for someone to slip and fall.
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, a few coming up soon. For these events, invite those not included in your membership and plan ahead for a good time.
Sell, Buy or Trade - Got 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 or call 724-396-4971.
No one should work alone. If you wish to perform some work at the club using your or club equipment, please call one of the volunteers to help and to provide additional safety. We don't want someone hurt and be by themselves. The list will be maintained here and in the clubhouse.

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.
