If that's not what they wanted to do, the point is moot. That's imposing someone else's ideas on them.

If there was alcohol involved, it's not cited in the original news report.

I'm still not seeing the issue. No one was hurt; it was on private property. If it was rifles and shotguns, anyone over 18 may legally fire them safely. I see nothing here any more egregious than any other noise complaint over a fraternity outing.
