This event is open to the public and draws shooters from other Maine clubs. Pizza lunch is served on-site, and awards are given at the match conclusion.
Falmouth operates a cold range where all firearms must be unloaded except when actively firing. The club enforces strict safety protocols including finger discipline, muzzle control, and mandatory eye/ear protection. All activities require Range Safety Officer instruction and oversight.
Beyond regular competitions, the club hosts a summer Annual Auction & Cookout (2026 date TBA) where members can donate sporting equipment and firearms-related items. The November Turkey Shoot is a popular seasonal event—the 2025 event attracted 28 shooters.
