Of course you need to see the ranges and understand what kind of shooting you can do there. Are they all numbered, fixed-range shooting stations with a bench and roof, or are there "pits" for setting up more practical drills?
Plus you need to know any odd rules about restricted shooting times/dates, prohibited weapons (.50 cals, full-auto?), or other items which would limit the range's usefulness to you.
A good example is the use of holsters. There are some ranges which prohibit realistic practice with your sidearm by forbidding drawing from a holster or "rapid fire" shooting. If you're new to shooting or only shoot to sight-in for hunting season that might be acceptable. If you do almost anything else with your guns, probably not.
Otherwise, Mcdonl nailed it, I think WRT seeing what kind of events the club hosts. If they have a calendar full of a variety of shooting disciplines (IDPA/USPSA, DCM High-Power, Bullseye, smallbore position rifle, benchrest matches, trap/skeet, Cowboy/SASS, Metallic silhouette, etc.) you'll probably find a well appointed range with fairly open policies and several different communities of shooters, one or more of which will be welcoming to your areas of interest.
