Honoring our Veterans - Thank You for Your Service and Sacrifice

On Veterans Day, the Florida Sport Shooting Association honors the men and women who have served in our nation’s uniform.

The discipline and respect for firearms we gained in military service stay with us long after we leave. A special thank you to the veterans who bring these values to our communities as range officers, instructors, mentors, and members and leaders of clubs and state associations. They continue to uphold the freedoms they defended, including the right to keep and bear arms.

To every veteran in the FSSA family: Thank you for your courage, sacrifice, and service to the greatest nation on Earth.

May God’s blessings be with you and your family and continue to bless the United States of America.

Sincerely,

Ted Carter
President
Florida Sport Shooting Association

NRA Range Development & Operations Conference

If you’re planning a shooting range—or already running one—you know it’s not just about putting up targets. It’s about doing it right, safely, and successfully.

That’s exactly why the NRA invites you to the
NRA Range Development & Operations Conference

NRA Headquarters, Fairfax, VA 

September 24–25, 2026

In just two days, you’ll gain real-world insight from industry experts who’ve helped ranges across the country succeed. You’ll walk away with practical knowledge you can actually use—whether you're starting from scratch or fine-tuning operations.

  3. Designing and constructing your range
  4. Managing sound, ventilation, and safety
  5. Securing funding and insurance
  6. Leveraging NRA programs and training

More importantly, you’ll connect with others who understand the challenges—and opportunities—of running a range.

Registration is $525
(Includes all materials + NRA Range Source Book on USB)
Lunch is provided on both days
