NOSA Range Schedules

Indoor Shooting Schedule for NOSA Members at Thunder Bay District Fish and Game Facility

Note: When on the F&G Ranges at any time, their rules contained in their Safety Orientation Session (SOS) or on their posted range signs must be followed.

Regular Wednesday evening shooting for Junior Shooters is underway.

Regular Friday evening shooting for NOSA Adult Members who also hold Thunder Bay District Fish and Game [F&G] Memberships is underway. Note that as members of F&G they can shoot 7 days a week at F&G Ranges when not booked by other clubs or undergoing maintenance.

New members to F&G who have not yet had an SOS (formal F&G-conducted safety briefing and walking tour of the ranges) can arrange to attend the next SOS, normally starting at the F&G Clubhouse at 09:30 a.m. on the first Saturday of each month. Specific arrangements can be made with the F&G Range Operator whose contact information is listed on the Club Contacts page -- see link in left column.

There are now new categories of NOSA Membership. (Please see the webpage About Us -- link is in left column of this page.) Those who hold membership of NOSA plus membership of Thunder Bay District Fish and Game will be able to shoot at Nolalu seasonally (see details below for NOSA days booked), and at the Fish and Game Ranges year round. Other persons who want to shoot at Nolalu Ranges only can buy a special Nolalu-Only NOSA Membership (see details below for NOSA days booked).

Outdoor Nolalu Shooting Range

The NOSA Club Nolalu Outdoor Shooting Range is known as the Nolalu Shooting Range or the JR Range. It is in operation in 2024 for two days a week on NOSA Club Days Thursdays and Sundays from 16 May through 13 October inclusive between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. or darkness.

Shooting on other non-Club Days can only be done with the express permission of the property owner, Mr. Wade Williams, and by additional private payment by the member (and any guest) of a per person daily fee; Mr. Williams at 807-629-2653 must have given permission in advance. If the shooting ranges are booked for another group or maintenance is scheduled, permission will not be allowed that day.
