What a weekend! Congratulations to all winners at the last Chain Shoot of the year--the Del-Tone Pop-Up--and the concurrent Grand Championship.

A huge thank you to Del-Tone Shooting Range, Scott Arvig, Jeff Hoppes, Heather & Tony Johnson, Ryan Cooper, Tracy & Joe Klersy, and Matt Johnson for volunteering with us that day. There were many more who helped out in unseen ways and as always, thanks to all of you too!

Kids, tag yourselves and we'll see you in the spring!

Here is the qualifiers list for the Grand Championship Sunday the 10th at Del-Tone. Congratulations to all of the shooters that qualified in each category. We look forward to seeing everyone Sunday to shoot it out and crown a Geand Champion.
Remember all are invited as we will run two events this weekend concurrently.

YOUTH SHOOTERS! Due to popular demand we have CHANGED our format for this Sunday's shoot and made it a combination POP-UP Chain Shoot AND concurrent Grand Championship Event and fundraiser!

What does that mean?

1. All ATA youth shooters up to age 22 can compete on Sunday
2. Singles & Handicap targets will be thrown (100 each as usual)
3. Cost is $36/100 targets plus $4ATA & $MTA daily fees
4. If you have qualified for the Grand Championship and shoot on Sunday, you'll be eligible for trophies in both the Open Category and the special Grand Championship Category with one score!

FAMILY MEMBERS & FRIENDS -- Due to the increased size of the shoot we could really use some help scoring rounds. If you'd be willing to help us out by scoring, even for a little while, would you please let me know?

Check back tomorrow (Wednesday, Aug 6) morning for the complete list of youth shooters who will also be competing in the Grand Championship portion of Sunday's program, and as we add some of the awesome items from our auctions and raffles!

PS. Background noise is the sound of feeding dogs :)

What a great day at Del-Tone Shooting Range last Saturday for the AIM State Shoot. Thank you to all the participants that came out and to all the parents and families that support our Youth Shooters. Thank you to the Anvil Foundation for keeping everyone fed and to Del-Tone for hosting the event again.
