Schools

The local college has finally approved the students shooting team here. The team has to keep the firearms in a safe and none of the students have access to them. The teams use our local trap range and skeet ranges for practice. Of course this is shotgun only but they have gotten a foot in the door. Surprisingly we have quite a few kids shooting. They can't afford too much shooting as they are college students...but we givve them cheaper rates and ammo as cheaply as possible. The teams are self supporting ie...no school funding but ya have to start somewhere. Also ...happily there are also about 6 young women trying it out. Not boyfriend things either. One gal is coming along nicely...the others are somewhat behing her but still trying.. It really is a good thing....for them and for the sport!!
