National Range Day is the brainchild of the Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights of which the Lone Butte Fish & Wildlife Association is a member club.
National Range Day is an opportunity for 2.3 Million Canadian Shooters to come together and celebrate our sport and culture across the land at the same time. It is also an opportunity for us to invite Canadians who have never had an opportunity to be exposed to firearms and or the shooting sports in Canada to see what it is all about and that we are one of the safest groups of people in Canada.
The LBFWA had an event prior to National Range Day that we called Family day. We put them together into a yearly event that we are proud of.
We invite you, your friends, your family, and everyone to come down to our outdoor range at 5513 Highway 24 on June 7, 2025 between 10:00AM and 3:30PM to come visit us at the range.
There will be opportunities to try your hand at Cowboy Action shooting, rifle, rimfire, pistol, and trap shooting. There will be demonstrations to watch of different shooting disciplines.
There will be Hamburgers, hotdogs, and refreshments for attendees and volunteers.
If you can volunteer please email me at info@lonebuttefishandwildlife.com we need sign-in attendants, people to help with parking, gatehouse attendantss, helpers on the bays, first aid, etc. Any help is appreciated and a usuall counts towards you volunteer rebate for 2026.
If you or someone you know whould like to be a sponsor we would be very appreciative. Funds towards food and ammunition are always helpful. and we like to have door prizes for attendees. Anything helps. ALso please email me if you can help out.
There are a few changes that you will need to be aware of going forward
Where is it? Its right across from the old sign in shed. For sentimental reasons we relocated the old sign in shelf, with a few modifications of course.
What is different now? Well the biggest difference is how we will be recording guests going forward. You will see a pocket of envelopes. This is where you will now record guest names and place guest fees.
Fill out the envelope completely. Place the appropriate funds in the envelope, seal it, and then stick it in the slot. Sadly I forgot to make a spot for the date so please just write the dae somewhere on the envelope. Please do not just stick money in the slot.
Single--$115.00
Junior--$50.00
Couple--$125.00
Family--$135.00
Senior 65 & up--$80.00

First it is important to understand that as an individual member you are welcome to bring your family to the range for shooting practice etc. You may also bring out of town guests to enjoy your range with you. If you and your spouse and family use the range on a regular basis and you wish to have guests shoot with you, it mandatory that your guest signs in and pays the $10.00 day user fee with a special discount for juniors(17 and under) at $2.00
The Board of Directors passed a motion in 2010 that requires both EYE and EAR PROTECTION for everyone on the firing line, shooters and spectators. Signs have been posted and executive and board members will be enforcing this policy. The range shooting sheds are equipped with Red safety flags. A RED flag means the range is active and firearms may be handled and discharged or someone is occupying that range for another reason so be aware at ALL TIMES what or who is downrange of the firing line. Please use the flags and be safe. The flags will not make up for a lack of awareness. If a flag is missing please notify the chair for that bay or the Board of Directors.
This is your club and your range. Non members may not use the range except as mentioned above. To help ensure that everyone who uses the range is eligible to do so the Board requires that you have your membership card available for presentation when requested. That is why it is important to keep the temporary ID provided by the top portion of the membership invoice.
