Midvalley Defensive Shooters IDPA Classifier
Midvalley Defensive Shooters will hold an IDPA classifier on Saturday, July 31 starting at 9:00am. If you need to get classified for any upcoming matches, just want to get classified or try and move up in rating, this is the time to do so. Classifiers can take awhile to run through each shooter so there may be some wait if everyone shows up at the same time. We’re asking $5.00 to help refill the range kitty jar.

***River Oaks Range Priorities ***
Safety First Shooting Association is a 501C4 nonprofit corporation which operates the River Oaks Range on private property. The Association was formed to promote Firearms Training and Safety to the Community. To this end we are organized to provide training opportunities and venues to support Firearms classes, public service events, various outreach programs to the general public, and educational opportunities related to the shooting sports. While we do operate a shooting range, our purpose is to provide education and training. Membership is not required to participate in the education and training opportunities presented by this Association. As an Association, Members are encouraged to attend any or all training’s they desire or have an interest in. All education and training opportunities take precedence over general Range activities. While our intent is to keep class fees to a minimum, some course materials will have a small cost associated, although this may be alleviated by grants and donations to the education aims of the Association. Please browse our calendar or contact for specific education needs.
The range and all it’s activities are run by “VOLUNTEER” Range Members,Board Members and Staff
