Columbia County Shooting Association

Columbia County Shooting Association operates a membership-supported range in Dayton serving shooters across the region. The club runs regular events, youth programs, and two major annual matches that draw competitors from across the SASS community.

Youth Shooting - Columbia County Marksmen 4-H Club meets the first Sunday of every month

Cowboy Action (SASS) - Pataha Rustlers shoot the second Saturday monthly (except July) - "Heck of it" Match - May, 2nd weekend (8 Wild Bunch stages + 14 Cowboy stages) - "Biggest Little Match" - October, 2nd weekend (same format) - Scores posted on PractiScore.com under "Pataha"

"We still don't promise much in the way of frills, but we do promise a lot of shooting!"

Meals provided: soup and sandwiches lunch Friday-Sunday, plus Saturday potluck (bring an entree). SASS membership not required for matches.

Membership Matters

The club needs a minimum of 75 active paid members to cover: - Land use fees - Insurance - Port-a-potty service

Keeping membership paid directly prevents fee increases. Bills don't include range maintenance or upgrades—member investment keeps the facility operational.

Range Rules

• •Pack in, pack out (no garbage service)
• •Clean up targets after shooting
• •Don't use carpeted spools as targets or target stands
• •No concrete block shooting
• •Hang targets safely to avoid wooden post damage
