April 7, 2026 by Alison Kelley

This event is a great opportunity to shake off the rust with 100 challenging clay targets, reconnect with friends, share a few stories, and maybe even settle some scores along the way.

A hot lunch will be provided by MISSION BBQ, and attendees will have the chance to win numerous door prizes. We’ll also be raffling off a beautiful side-by-side shotgun—just in time for the upcoming season.

Come out for a great day of shooting, camaraderie and conservation support.
