The JHESC staff are assisted with running a safe range by Volunteer Range Safety Officers (VRSOs). VRSOs are people with firearm experience, specialized training, and good people skills. The primary responsibility of a VRSO is to observe customer behavior and ensure safe handling and shooting of firearms, in compliance with JHESC range rules. We have VRSOs who actively help out on various days and times. If you think you might be interested in receiving training and becoming a VRSO, please fill out this safety officer application form.
