Due to a hard, short rain, (3 inches in one hour) the 100-yard bridge over the creek has been damaged. Therefore, the 100-yard berm is NOT accessible at this time.
We are awaiting a proposal from a contractor for the necessary repairs.
We will make an announcement in this spot as to when the bridge will re-open and the 100-yard berm is accessible again.
We apologize for the inconvenience.

EFFECTIVE Friday, September 4
All PHA matches will continue their normal schedule. However, we still must still follow a few NC restrictions while shooting matches.
They are:
-
While shooting outdoors, no more than 50 people will be allowed to participate in ANY PHA match.
- Everyone shooting the match must maintain the 6-foot separation.
- All match shooters, match directors, and RSO's must wear protective masks.
- No food can be provided at any match.
If these requirements cannot be complied with at any match, then the match must be canceled. These requirements will remain in place until the NC Governor relaxes them again. And we'll report those changes in the Range Report.
Also, the guest restriction has now been removed. Please follow the normal limitation, 2 per member, for guests you bring PHA Range.
PHA Board of Directors.
