COMPETITIVE SHOTGUN SPORTS
BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE CHAIN O’ LAKES SPORTSMEN’S CLUB
FREE SHOOTING DAY!
Would you enjoy the competitive nature of shotgun shooting? Have you ever wanted to try competitive shotgun sports, but never had the opportunity? Now is your chance!
All students must be accompanied by a parent or guardian and are invited to attend a “free shooting day” at Chain O’ Lakes Sportsmen’s Club (COLSC) located three miles west of Mancelona on Peterson Road, one quarter mile east of M-88. Shooting starts at Noon on Saturday, November 10, 2007. Directions may be found at the clubs website www.colsc.org
The program will consist of Five-Stand Sporting Clays and is available for any enrolled student from the 12th grade on down. Students are requested to bring their own shotguns. Ammunition and clay targets will be furnished. Hands on assistance and instruction will be provided.
Beyond this free shooting day you will have the opportunity to compete as a team member of the Chain O’ Lakes Sportsmen’s Club’s Scholastic Clay Target Program (SCTP). The Program is nationwide and functions under the auspices of the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF). SCTP is an opportunity open to all students and is a pathway to competition at the regional, state, national and international levels, including Olympic competition.
Shotgun sports are not just for the biggest, fastest, or strongest student and they’re not just for boys! From one high school alone 54 students came out for the shooting team and almost half of them were girls. The teams coach, Carol Fox said, “It puts everyone on a level playing field.....it gives them a niche. It teaches them great discipline, self control and camaraderie…..all good things to take with them into adulthood.”
Please join us at Noon on November 10, 2007
and see what your future may hold.
