Mapleseed Rides Again in 2024
Sponsored Once Again by Lone Butte Sporting Goods
and hosted by us at the Lone Butte Fish & Wildlife Association
What is Project Mapleseed?
Project Mapleseed is an apolitical rifle marksmanship training program that focuses on teaching traditional rifle marksmanship from standing, sitting/kneeling, and prone positions in a one-day shooting clinic termed a "Mapleseed". They are a non-profit, all volunteer run organization committed to helping Canadians develop fundamental marksmanship skills and the safe handling of firearms.
Why should you participate?
Project Mapleseed is challenging, educational, engaging and fun! We want to share our proud history and build a solid foundation for growth. Project Mapleseed’s goal is to introduce current and future firearm enthusiasts to essential safety and marksmanship skills along with sharing the important role of firearms in Canadian history. In sharing this history, they hope to encourage these individuals to help preserve our firearms heritage and freedoms in Canada.
What do you need?
The minimum you need is a .22LR rifle, 400 rounds of ammunition and a teachable attitude. Mapleseed is open to all sight types including scopes. The .22LR semi-automatic, magazine-fed rifles are the most commonly seen for their ease of use during the mandatory magazine changes and low ammo cost. Bring what you have, the shooting fundamentals taught apply to the shooter not their rifle. The goal is to learn and have fun.

Range Fees
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
Range Safety
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.
Range use:
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.
