Is the Club ever open to the public?
Members of ASC have open access to all club facilities every day. Others are welcome to enjoy our facilities during events open to the public. In addition, everyone is welcome to participate in a wide range of educational and training programs. ASC is also home for SAFERUSA which holds numerous NRA and other firearms classes throughout the year. See their website for class schedules and information www.saferusa.com. We're regularly told how much the women enjoy the basic safety classes designed just for them. Our Training and Education programs are listed on the Education Page and on the Calendar.
Trap shooting and 5-Stand is open to the public on Sunday from 9AM until 3PM.
Recurring monthly events include Archery matches on the first Sunday of the month from January through October, Rifle/ Pistol match shooting each 2nd Sunday of the month, and Muzzleloading matches the 3rd Sunday of the month. We also offer other events that are open to the public. Please check the Calendar for those events.
Keep in mind that these events are matches, not open shooting!
How do I contact someone at the Club?
The best way is to e-mail one of the officers or department chairperson on the Contacts page. You may also call the Club at 815-264-9000 and leave a message for the appropriate department. Note that the Club is operated through members who are kind enough to donate their time as volunteers. Therefore, do not expect someone to answer the phone and messages may not be returned in a timely manner. The Club does not mail out literature or brochures as all information is available on the website.
How do I make reservations to participate in a CMP High Power Clinic?
