  • Volunteers Needed – Target Stocking – Saturday, April 11 starting at 8:00 am

    MVSS will be receiving a semi-trailer with 23 pallets of targets, and we could use your help to move boxes from the pallets into the trap and skeet houses. Each trap and skeet house will have a pallet of targets staged and ready for stocking.

    Please mark the date on your calendar to help with the stocking starting at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday, April 11, 2025.

    Shooting that Saturday will be delayed until the trap and skeet houses are loaded and the fields are made safe. THANK YOU in advance for your help!

  • Volunteers Needed

    Members and Friends,

    Our facility was established in 2011 and continues to operate thanks to the thousands of volunteer man hours donated by our members. Over the past couple of years we have lost many of our volunteers. Some have moved away and some, quite frankly, have just got too old to help! We need volunteers to open and run the trap and skeet ranges, along with volunteers to help with the sporting clays and 5 stand.

    Please review  this letter which summarizes the duties a volunteer would have. If you would like to help, please reach out to the person listed for that venue.

    Thank you,
    Phillip Pruett
    President
    Mesilla Valley Shotgun Sports, Inc
