Hey guys, just a heads up Everett Sportsmens Club on Ebey Island in Snohomish is closed until further notice due to flooding. I'm going down to fill sandbags and try to get some of our equipment out. I'm not sure how long this is going to last, but the range is now closed to the public at least for a week. Thanks for the support and you can check our website at http://www.everettsportsmenclub.org/ for updates. Stay Safe everyone!

I've used this range a couple of times but found it to be mostly under water during the winter months. The last flood closed the range for months if I recall correctly. If the range itself isn't flooded it is so soggy you will want to wear some good rubber boots to walk out and set your targets.

I'm going to go down there tomorrow and see if we can't open it up this coming weekend. Hopefully it's not too bad anymore. It's been a week since I've shot, I'm dying to put holes in things. Like the website says, it's reloading season for us.

Hey, thanks for the post!

I live in Snohomish and wasn't aware of this range. Yeah, I know, I'm a little "slow" sometimes LOL!

I am impressed with the .50 Cal BMG rifle at the "Hunter sight in day" recently :shock::shock::?:D:D

Yes Friday is included, And I just got the word tonight that it is 100% sure to open tomorrow. I'll be there (maybe not ALL day) but if you come around noon (opening time) I'll be there, stop and say hi, my name is Matt I'll be the one with the name tag that says Matt and a Orange rangemaster cap and sweatshirt. Just make sure you say OC guy or I won't know who the hell you are.

ALSO We are now in the winter discount months, $10 per shooter all day (12-4PM)

Sweet, my coworker and I are hoping to drop by on Sunday after church. It'll be nice to put some rounds through the .22 and AR15 again :)

I went to the Ebey Island Range yesterday. Thanks for the invite Matt!! And the targets.. I owe you a $1. :)

This is a great range. I talked with the wife about it and we'll probably apply for a membership!
