2-18-18 1st Year Anniversary Fundraiser Event

Past Event

We had a great time at our First Anniversary Fundraiser Event, this past Sunday Feb 18th. Raffled and auctioned all the prizes, met great people, heard encouraging words from our Forest Officials and ate good food! It was fun!

The cold weather and threat of snow held some back but those who showed were dedicated to the cause! Thank you to all who attended and all the vendors and individuals who donated! Your support for Trash No Land and the work we do is very much appreciated!

Certainly, there is always an opportunity to help us further our mission by clicking on the donate button on our Facebook page or our website at trashnoland.org.

Now, let us begin our 2018 Spring/Summer season!

Recreate well, my friends!

ABOUT THE VENUE… The Clackamas County Sheriff’s Public Safety Training Center has meeting facilities and an indoor pistol range. This is a perfect venue for our organization and we plan to have a great time.

Please be aware of their house rules! If you are planning to shoot before or after our event, here’s a few things you should know… (visit their website for more details).

The Blue Range

• 10 lanes of 25 yards. This is the range primarily used by public shooters. The targets are manually operated. Additionally, there is a laterally moving target that can be used for moving-target drills.

• They do offer memberships; however, you may also shoot on a drop-in basis.

• You will be required to take a safety tutorial and test, and sign a liability statement. There is no charge for this.

• You must have a working firearm in your possession.

• For non-members, the lane fee is $18.00 per person.

• You must purchase and shoot our ammunition. All ammunition must be purchased from the PSTC Armory. When available, “clean fire” ammunition will be used. It virtually eliminates lead vapors generated at the firing point by combining a total metal jacket and a priming mixture containing no toxic elements.

• You may bring your own targets or purchase ours for $1.00 each.

• All personal targets are subject to approval by the range staff.

• The range is open to handguns, rimfire rifles and handgun-caliber rifles. • Ammunition availability will determine if you may or may not shoot unusual calibers.

• All firearms are subject to approval by the range staff. Ejected shells are very hot and will burn and/or blister. Also, the range is very loud. For your safety, they require the following:

• Ear-muff-style hearing protection (provided)

• Wrap-around eye protection (provided) or side shields (not provided)

• Closed-toed shoes (socks may be substituted)

• Shirts and pants They recommend the following:  Baseball caps • Long-sleeve protection • Long pants and high-neck shirts • Ear-plugs as backup to ear-muffs.

Ages:

• 18 years old with proof. • 12 years old if accompanied and supervised by a legal guardian (liability waiver required)

Rental pricing:

• $10 members • $12 non-members • $6 revolver • Over 65 guns for rent (visit their website for a list).  You must have a working firearm with you to rent one.

They accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover Card, checks, and cash.

No open carry at the event or into the building. Firearms must be unloaded and cased. You may take your handguns to the counter for safe keeping while you are at the event.

Thank you, All. We are looking forward to meeting you and having a great afternoon!

We are raising funds to improve recreational shooting on public land!

Every week we see postings about more trashed shooting sites.  It’s a very real situation and needs to be corrected.  We now have an organization to help change that, preserve recreational shooting and combat the stigma of people with guns in the woods.

I joined you in this effort in the Spring of 2014 and I believe we’ve done a lot of good in raising awareness about our concerns, the rules, ethics, shooting etiquette and stewardship. In Jan 2017, I felt it best to have a non-profit organization in place to help us in our collaborative efforts.  It’s because a lot of you have a desire to see it change for the better and I’m willing to donate my time to help.  I feel we have made a difference but gun sales are up, ranges are full and more new shooters on public lands.

We need to step up our efforts (again).  More education and awareness.  More boots on the ground. More cooperative efforts.  More ‘Random Acts of Cleanups’.  And more dollars to get it done.

With your help, we are going to make more of a difference!

Stay tuned for more details about the event, coming soon! Hope you can make it Feb 18th!

Welcome to the team… Cascade Training Group!!!

The experts at Cascade Training Group are donating

Adventure Medical Sportsmen Whitetail first aid kits to our event!

Thank You!!!

Cascade Training Group was started by a couple veteran rescue dudes who love what they do and wanted to use their experiences and training to share and keep other rescuers and workers safe in their respective lines of work.  We specialize in Technical Rescue Training and Confined Space Rescue operations.  We have a cadre of Vancouver Firefighters and retired Air Force Vets that deliver quality – hands on training in a variety of topics.  We feel like we are stewards of our earth also and we like to shoot.

CTG writes:  “Keep up the great work.  I must admit you inspired my gang – Although we’ve never littered and we pack it in and pack it out – but we took it to the next level during our last shooting session. We brought some trash bags and garden rakes and conducted a little clean up in our favorite area.  Unfortunately sometimes I feel like it’s a losing battle but we’re doing what we can. It’s a great place and I fear it may get closed down it’s littered so bad.  We’ll keep chipping away at it when we’re there.”

Great words of encouragement!  Come help us, along with CTG, to do some good for recreational shooting on public lands!
