It's off Dare Rd in Yorktown (technically Grafton, VA), just off 17.

No skeet, but there is 5-stand (like sporting clays), trap, and wobble trap.

It's not paper only, but it's pretty much paper only. There's no steel (that may be changing in the future, the club is getting a change in leadership), but you can either shoot paper in the target holders or soda cans or clay pigeons (that you pick up off the shotgun range's field when it's closed) that you put against the backstop.

I know someone who has probably around $100,000 in guns, and has fully automatic guns.

Maybe I can borrow on of them and show my jihad skills. I'll just borrow the AK-47.
No full auto fire allowed on the range. That's the thing about full auto - spend a ton of money and give up some rights to get it, then good luck finding a place to use it.

I feel like I've met Dave...I'm met so many people there that it's hard to keep track, but the name Dave Coffey rings a bell).

I am back in town. So...
let's do the following.

Makes posts with the following info:
Can you take a Friday or Thursday off?
Will you bring anybody with you?
Morning, afternoon, or all day?
Do you have a decent amount of firearms experience?
Are you an Lafayette Gun Club member or even better range officer (in case there are a lot of people who want to do this, I'd want another set of club-approved eyes and ears)?
Will be bringing any guns and are you all set for ammo?

My dream would be if everybody had a shotgun and we all shot trap (much easier to manage 1 trap line than 5 shooters on a rifle range), but I realize that's highly unlikely.

We could go indoors if people wanted. Part of why I'm doing a weekday is there won't be so many people around. If it's one of those Fridays where nobody is in the indoor range (seems about 50/50), it'd be no trouble to go indoors.
