Our Mission Statement
The BCC is a dedicated group of individuals promoting the protection and propagation of fish and game in a safe, sportsman-like and law-abiding manner. We encourage young and old alike to get involved with shooting and outdoor sports through our many safety programs and training in the proper care and use of hunting and fishing equipment. Our hope is to maintain for the use of the community our ranges and reserves for the purpose of developing characteristics of good fellowship, self discipline and self-reliance essential to good sportsmanship, true patriotism and citizenship.
Rifle and Pistol Ranges are open daily from 8:00 a.m. dusk. You must be a member to use ranges. Ranges are closed on special occasions, including Thursday night Summer Trap League. Please check the calendar for the specific dates. The City of Berlin compost pit will be closed for all sporting clays events.
President's PointHello everyone, while most of our shooting at the club has wrapped up for the year there are a couple Sunday mornings left to come down and get a few rounds in, November 12th will be our final Sunday morning for the season. Thank you to everyone that lent a hand to make this another great year of shooting at BCC.
Come November we will be working on what is sure to be a busy 2024shooting calendar. Our winter trap and archery leagues begin the first week of January so get your teams together, that time will be here before you know it. As I said in the last newsletter, whatever game you are chasing this fall good luck and be safe. Also, as this is my final writing for the year I would like to wish all of you a happy holiday season and look forward to seeing you all in 2024. Respectfully, Don Konen President Volunteer OpportunitiesAre you looking for a way to earn a shooting card, or pheasants?
