No, TRPC doesn't require membership in either.
ETA: If you send your application in now, it should reach the e-board in time to be read at this Sunday's monthly meeting and voted upon by the membership. If you don't get your application to the club in time, it will take another month to join.
Yes, it was on there Facebook page not to long ago. Didn't see what time it started though

Hey Bender, I sent my app in mid October. Has TRPC reviewed and sent out any letters for qualified applicants?

Hi. I just checked the rules, and asked Eric. That's acceptable, just be aware of other folks on the range.
Have fun.
Have fun.
Awesome. Thanks for such a quick reply.

Anyone know if they plow the road to the outdoor range when it snows?
Bender
NES Member
Yes, the parking lots at the indoor range and the driveway/access road at the outdoor range get plowed.

Me and a buddy are looking into joining the Taunton Rifle and Pistol Club. Is there anyway to go check it out before making a decision?

Excellent timing; if you show up on a Tuesday night between 7 and 9 PM, there will be a match. Several members of the executive board will be present, you will be able to access the clubhouse [ordinarily locked, as our facilities are not open to the public] and any questions you may have will be addressed.
I talked to my buddy and we are planning on showing up this Tuesday. I like the idea of being open 24hrs. With kids it's hard to get to the range before dusk sometimes. Thanks Bender

Been a member since 1993 love it.
I sent in my membership renewal when the notice came in in September and see that the check was cashed but I never received any confirmation. Should I be concerned?
Bender
NES Member
No. No cause for concern; everyone who sent in renewal / leave of absence request was processed by 1 January. Folks who hadn't managed to send in renewals or contact the board otherwise were sent a second notice earlier this week.
Excellent!
I ended up having to stop by and talk to the pres because I couldn't remember if I ever mail the check... if you are worried they do have a list of unpaid (at least they did during January s meeting)

Anyone know if letters for invites to the newly accepted members will go out this week for the January 25th orientation. Also, anyone know what start time and how long the orientation lasts.
Thank you in advance for any reply.

Bender,
Thank you again for your quick reply. Man you are good when it comes to replies!!
I assume letters will be received this week for invites. As you can tell, I'm really looking forward to becoming a new member. I've heard nothing but good things about TRPC.

Trying to decide between Taunton and Mansfield but found out that Mansfield currently doesn't have an indoor facility, now leaning towards Taunton. I joined Holbrook last year but due to conflicting work schedule was unable to get the required signatures in order to become full member. Is Taunton accepting new members and if so what do I have to do in order to make it happen? Thanks!
