Our Mission

We are dedicated to promoting firearm safety, education, and shooting sports among area youth.

We offer these programs to youth completely free. We are able to do so through generous donations and our own fundraising efforts. We partner with local organizations to offer our outreach programs. We are an IRS certified 501(c)(3) public charity.

What we do

Free Youth Shooting Events

We partner with local organizations to sponsor free youth shooting events. These events allow youth to get their first firearm experience in a positive way with trained instructors and range safety officers. Shooting events are always held in conjunction with a firearm safety clinic. Events include initial orientation events as well as events geared for continued skill building.

Next event: September 29th at 2:00pm

Free Youth Safety Clinics

We take firearm safety seriously, especially when it comes to youth. We strongly believe that one of the best ways to prevent firearm violence is to raise youth who grow up to respect and understand firearms. All our shooting events start with a firearms safety class.

Supporting Youth Trap

Our goal is to financially support area youth trap teams such as the high school trap team. Since high school trap is not a WIAA recognized sport, they receive little formal support from the school. We are dedicated to offer scholarships for students who wish to participate in trap shooting. Our long term goal is to completely cover the students' cost.
