There
is a need to teach young people the traditions,
discipline, fun and excitement of learning safe
shooting. The Gateway Sportsmen’s Club continues to
bring this important program to young people, by hosting
its fourth annual Youth Waterfowl Shoot. This
event will be absolutely FREE to youth ages 10 to
16 thanks to an NRA Foundation Grant.
The shoot will be held Friday, September 17th
from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m.
Delta Waterfowl will also be attending this event. Participants can shoot two 25 bird
rounds of Skeet, Trap or 5 Stand Duck Tower. Contact
Bill Kauffold (989) 674-0028 or Tom Eurich (989)
883-2369 to volunteer.
We plan to open the
duck tower
during
Delta Waterfowl’s Outdoor Show
in August. Please contact Doug Elston at (989) 883-3787
to volunteer to help the shooters with the event.
