Next PPSA Range Closure: PPSA Range Notice — Partial Closures Thu, Nov 6: Maintenance crews will be working across the range on Thursday, Nov 6; the range remains open to members, but different bays/lanes will close intermittently as teams move from one area to the next. We don’t have exact times for each section—crews will start in one area and progress through the entire range throughout the day—so please expect temporary closures, follow staff directions and posted signs, and thanks for your patience while we keep the range in top shape.

PPSA Christmas Party — Dec 9, 2025: Our Annual Christmas Party is set for December 9, 2025, and tickets will be available soon; we’ll announce the on-sale date as soon as they’re released—stay tuned!
