Interesting. The Fish & Game agencies in both states where I've lived after the military show no interest at all in competitive shooting.

I guess what we do doesn't provide them any revenue.

Wow! That is really cool! It's a great outreach to make people aware of competitive shooting. Well done!

There are displays of several types of guns (free, air, bullseye, etc.) and a 10M AP range with several guns to shoot along with some *very* capable instructors, all for free. The building is at the far end of the event and not everyone is making the trip but those who do are reporting a very beneficial as well as enjoyable experience. (Thanks, Bill!)
