The Beloit Rifle Club has adopted a new membership procedure effective for the 2011 year. The links above provide PDF copies of the new Membership Procedure and the new Application. Click on these links to access this information.
HOW TO BECOME A MEMBER OF THE BELOIT RIFLE CLUB:
1. You must be a member of the National Rifle Association – NO EXCEPTIONS. Membership in your State Association is suggested but not required.
2. Get an application at the club or download one on line. Your application is due on the 1st of February of the year that you wish to join. Remember that we only take in members once a year, the first Wednesday of March.
3. Get to know the club members so you can have two (2) of them act as sponsors on your application. Through these members get to know about the club and all it has to offer. One of the best times to get to know members is at a club meeting, which is the first Wednesday of each month from 6:30 to 8:00pm. Introduce yourself to the group to get the process started.
4. Another benefit of going to the meetings is to see who is in charge of the various disciplines the club offers. See who participates in the shooting area that you are interested in. This is the fastest way for members to get to know you.
5. DUES: The night that you become a member of the Beloit Rifle Club you will need to pay $195.00. During your first year of membership you will be required to work 8 hours for the club. If you work another 8 hours (16 total), yours dues will be reduced to $55.00. Without the second 8 hours your dues will be $185.00. Without the first 8 work hours, you will not be renewed.
Dues during the second, and succeeding membership years, you are required to work only 8 hours, to reduce your dues to $55.00. If you choose not to work, your dues will reflect the maximum amount, currently $185.00. The non-renewal situation is only during the first year of your membership.
6. I’m sure you have many questions. This is just an introductory statement to get you started along the road to membership. Ask those who are acting as your sponsors for the answers to your questions, if they don’t know ask at a meeting. Get a RULE BOOK from your sponsors and go over it with them. Part of your membership is the responsibility to know the rules the club functions under.
