Golden High Country Archers

Golden High Country Archers has deep roots in the area. Originally built by Coors for its employees back in the 1990s, the range was donated to the City of Golden in 1999 as part of the Tony Grampsas Memorial Sports Complex. When Coors closed the range in 1996, the community rallied. In 2000, former Table Mountain Archers president Robert Creed got a call from the parks director asking if he wanted it back. He did—and assembled a crew to reopen it by the park's July dedication that same year.

Twenty-five years later, GHCA has grown from that handful of founders to over 1,000 active members.

The archery range includes:

• •20 3D lanes for target shooting and hunting simulation
• •Sight-in range for zeroing equipment
• •Clubhouse for member events and gatherings

Memberships are individual or family-based. New memberships run from your join date through May 31st of the following year; renewals run June 1st through May 31st.

Golden residents and active-duty military can join anytime regardless of the 900-membership cap. Others go on a waiting list when full.

Each membership can complete 4+ hours of range maintenance work annually for full credit of the work fee—the club operates entirely on volunteer labor. Work credit is prorated based on hours worked and must be completed by May 1st.

GHCA holds member and public events throughout the year and provides opportunities for members to support local charities. Safety briefings and orientations are offered regularly—attendance is encouraged. The club operates as a 501(c)(7) nonprofit with a seven-person board of directors and a detailed bylaws structure.

Safety violations may result in loss of membership.
