Meet J.C.
I grew up in Walla Walla, Washington, and for most of my life I figured baseball was going to be a long-term pursuit. I played, then I coached collegiately for over a decade.
Things changed when Katie and I got married and the kids started showing up. We wanted our life pointed toward our faith and our family, and we wanted to be out from under city - and stadium - lights. Somewhere our kids could grow up outside, close to the land and whatever was living on it.
Flip A Range From The Gate
Six ranges, six switches. Whoever opens up that morning taps the ones that are hot, hits save, and the status bar on the public site changes before they've walked back to the truck.
The scrolling range message underneath works the same way - type it, save it, and it sits across the top of the site until someone takes it down. No webmaster in the loop.
Every Feature, Proven On One Club First
Nothing on this list is a roadmap item. It is all running at eergunclub.com right now, on a volunteer board's schedule, and every one of these became a standard part of the platform.
Today's Status, Six Ranges
Archery, muzzleloader, pistol bays, action shooting, rifle and 5 stand each carry their own open or closed flag on the homepage. A board member flips one from a phone at the gate.
Levels And Dues Online
Individual at $80 a year and Family at $90, each expiring a year from the join date. Members pick a level, pay by card, and the roster updates itself.
Sign In And Renew
Every member has a login that shows their level, expiration and history. Renewal is a button, not a call to the secretary.
Sight-Ins, Cowboy Action, Orientations
The club's real calendar - open sight-in weekends, monthly cowboy action, monthly orientation - posted with a price, free or paid, and a register button on each one.
Signups With A Head Count
Name, phone, email in a box on the homepage, a confirmation email on the way out, and the board knows how many people to feed before Saturday.
The Bridge Is Out Banner
A closed road, a fire closure, a canceled match. One field, and the notice sits across the top of the site until it is taken down.
A Page Per Discipline
The 800-yard rifle line, 3D archery lanes, muzzleloader, pistol bays, trap and 5 stand, and an action bay set up for USPSA, IDPA and 3-gun - each with its own rules and photos.
Safety, Usage, Emergency, Maps
Safety procedures, range usage rules, emergency procedures, orientation dates and range maps, in one section a new member can be pointed at.
Club News And The Board Inbox
Posts for closures, orientation photos and committee calls, plus one contact form that reaches the board instead of a personal email address.
The Second Club Took Days, Not Months
Every piece East End needed turned out to be a piece every club needs. Once the range board, the dues, the waiver and the events calendar were built and proven on a working range, the only thing left to change for the next club was the name on the door.
That is why the setup fee is $750 instead of a five-figure project, waived outright if you pay annually, and why the price is on the website. The build is already done.
"We have been able to remove a complete step to our process."
East End Rod & Gun Club
This website merge has saved us hours as all we have to do is confirm payment then add the gate card number to their profile on the website, v.s. logging orientation then the website then the gate system. It has also saved us the headache of tracking from one report to the next. We have been able to remove a complete step to our process.
Curtis wrote a full letter about the build, the gate card merger, and what the board's workload looks like now. It runs about a page.
A Seven-Day Build For Your Club
Not a quarter-long project. Reserve today, send us your content, and your club is live this week - one point of contact, fixed scope, no committee cycle.

Pricing is public. $750 to set up, waived when you pay annually, and every number is on the pricing page before you call.
