Indoor Adult Programs Schedule:

 

Indoor adult programs for Precision Pistol, Recreational Pistol, Archery, and IPSC are currently scheduled for opening in mid-October. Discipline Directors are developing training plans in compliance with the BC Target Sports Association and BC Archery Association “Return to Sport” workbook.  These detailed plans are designed to protect participants, coaches and volunteers when training in a COVID-19 environment, and will be available for the review of all participants prior to opening.  Special thanks is due to the Discipline Directors for putting in a significant amount of volunteer time in order to safely offer these programs.

 

Please continue to check the “News” and "Calendar" section of the KDFGC website for updated schedules and information.

 

Indoor Junior Program Cancellation:

 

After careful consideration of the risks posed by potential transmission of the COVID-19 virus, the KDFGC Board of Directors has made the difficult choice to suspend delivery of our popular Tuesday evening Junior Rifle and Archery program.  Of particular concern is the Junior’s use of shared equipment, distributed ammunition, and physical distancing required for effective individual coaching. We will continue to evaluate the risks and available controls, and reintroduce the Junior Program when safe to do so.

 

The KDFGC Board of Directors would like to express their concern and best wishes for members and their families to stay healthy during this challenging time. We look forward to returning to regular operations and social activities as soon as appropriate.

 

Thank you for your understanding in the interim.

 

Sincerely,

 

KDFGC Board of Directors

The office will be closed on Thursday 10 Sep 20 and will reopen on Saturday 12 Sep 20.
