Range & Target Activities
Updated on 12/17/2024
The Jayhawk Area Council’s Range and Target Activities Committee is comprised of 12 plus dedicated volunteers who are trained and certified NRA instructors, Range Officers, and Chief Range Safety Officers, and a Training Counselor. Shooting Sports volunteers are passionate and focus on the experience as well as providing each participant with a life changing summer adventure.
Whether they are participating in Action Archery, Throwing Tomahawks, Shooting BB Guns, Slingshots, Shotgun or Rifle Shooting, participants learn the importance of doing each activity safely as well as developing an appreciation for the second amendment.
Over the last several years, our Shooting Programs have expanded and become more popular as a result. This past year, we launched a Cowboy Action Program where participants 14 years of age and older have the opportunity to fire a 22 LR Single Action Revolver, a 22 LR Lever Action Long Rifle, and a 20-gauge double barrel shotgun. We have been able to do so through the passion of our volunteers alongside the generosity of individuals, families and donors who believe in the importance of shooting sports education.
This investment back into Scouting , our shooting programs and today’s youth will pave the way for the next generation to develop a love for the outdoors and preserve and protect the second amendment, and learn safety, responsibility, concentration, organization, etc. If would like to make a donation to this program (Matched through the generous support of the MidwayUSA Foundation), please follow the link: https://www.midwayusafoundation.org/team-profile/?id=R30691
Your generous gift will go a long way to help the youth we serve to develop leadership skills and instill values important to good citizenship and service to others. Thanks in advance!
