“I think that members and guests are going to be amazed with the selection of activities available at The Beretta Gun Club,” said Omar Botero, partner and CEO of Alianza Trinity Holdings. “We envisioned a club like no other, where like-minded sporting enthusiasts can enjoy the thrill of ammunition sports along with a wide array of entertainment offerings, fine dining options and family-oriented amenities and programing.”

With a mission to offer guests the sense of camaraderie and ambiance that comes with a country club environment, The Beretta Gun Club and Shooting Grounds will offer VIP members exclusive services, including: access to an on-site gun valet, secure gun vault, camo-cart for clay course usage and firearm rentals.

The luxury shooting facility will also offer firearm education and safety courses for first-time shooters as well as tactical and defense training.

“We are really excited to see how The Beretta Gun Club is going to enhance Bright’s Creek growing community,” said Gilberto Iragorri, Partner and Chief Business Development Officer of Alianza Trinity Holdings. “The community has grown so much in recent years, and we believe a luxury gun club is going to draw in a whole new demographic.”

The Beretta Gun Club is the culmination of a strategic partnership between Bright’s Creek developer Alianza Trinity Holdings and Beretta, the oldest and most recognized firearms manufacturing company in the world.

“Bright’s Creek was the ideal location for The Beretta Gun Club and Shooting Grounds, said Ian Harrison, director of the Beretta Trident Program. “With over 200 acres of space, the facility is going to feature a variety of options that gun and hunting enthusiasts can’t find anywhere else.”

Bright’s Creek has been undergoing expansion since 2013 when the mountain resort was acquired by Alianza Trinity Holdings. In addition to the soon-to-be gun club, the family-friendly community features a top-rated Tom Fazio golf course, a luxurious equestrian center, a lodging community and club house with future plans to construct a swim and fitness club, a wine tasting room, a children’s activity center and multiple outdoor entertainment areas.
