| All Year | DCB Range: DCB Members can access the range any time by acquiring a key from the Alice Springs Shooting Complex Inc (ASSCI). Keys are issued on an indefinite timeframe to DCB members and key deposit is $50.00 which is fully refundable when the key is returned to ASSCI. The key allows access to the DCB range gate at the western end of the shooting complex as well as access to the main ASSCI gate at the eastern end of the complex. Please note that due to the overfire templates, internal access to the archery range from the eastern gate is not permitted without special approval - all archery access should be from the western gate only. Please see the maps elsewhere on this site for clarification. Indoor Range: Members with their own archery equipment meet at 7:00pm most Wednesday nights at the DCB 'Indoor Range' located behind the grandstand at the Alice Springs Showgrounds / Blatherskite Park. We hold informal competitions and Indoor is a good opportunity to tune your bow and your skills on a 20 metre range. A paper testing jig is also available. Cost is $5.00 per member per night - no charge for junior members. There is no DCB club equipment available for use at the indoor range. Indoor is generally available all year round. Note that the Blatherskite Park gate generally closes automatically at 7:30pm and while it will allow vehicles out of the park after that time, it won't allow them in without a keytab. |
