Shootout to benefit local Scouting.
« on: July 07, 2011, 10:13:51 AM »
2011 10th Annual Shootout
Register now for the 10th Annual Sporting Clay Tournament,
Friday September 9 at Werner Valley Shooting Fields. This
event is made possible by the sponsorship of Werner Enterprises,
Inc. Scott Robertson, president of UltraAir will serve as event
chair. This is a sporting clay tournament that benefits our inner
city Scouting programs. The tournament events include; trap,
5-stand, pistol shooting and sporting clays. For more information,
or to register your 5-person team, please contact (402) 431-
9BSA (9272).


Is anyone is interested in forming a team or two or....?
I'm no pro-shooter, but I'd be willing to fill a team if needed.
This would not only be a fun event for a good cause, as I believe avenues such as Scouting is what our youth need to become good, productive citizens. It would also be great chance for some public relations for the NFOA, If we had a team or two to represent. ( I'm thinking DanW and fellas take on the shotty gun events and CZ's GSSF folks, ENGC steel shooters for the pistols ;)  Hey, I'm just sayin'  (sorry guys, no AR or Mosin shoots :(  )
I am currently waiting to hear back on entry fees and event specifics, and will post when I get a call back.

That sounds like a great idea and allot of fun.  I don't think anyone would want to be on a team with me but ertain that i may be able to find a way to chear on the team if we can get one put together.

Let me know if there is anything I can do to help get things going, and if there is anything the NFOA can do at the event (could be a geat time to reach out to those that are not Gunshow people).

Ok folk, got some info, I don't have alot, because the answer to my first question stunned me enough, I really could get the others out-  Entry fee $5K per team!  So without some CRAZY sponsorship, I believe the majority of us are out. (seeing as how our members are building guns in basements and get excited shooting $100 military rifles)
Maybe this is normal. 
AAllen, I didn't go much futher than that, I will let you call the number listed and ask about possible NFOA involvement.

Sounds like to perfect event for the NFOA to do some NEW(wealthy) Member recruiting, if it would be allowed.
