Orientation

All participants in the program attend a brief orientation session conducted by the on-duty Range Officer. It consists of a brief review of range safety, etiquette/commands, and scoring. Orientation arrangements can also be made by contacting Dan Langlois at 836-3616 or by e-mailing langlodt@uwec.edu.
