4-H Shooting Sports is a national curriculum that promotes highest standards of safety, sportsmanship, and ethical behavior. The program links to understanding natural resources, wildlife, and environmental stewardship.
Who may participate? Any Boone County 4-H club members (4th – 12th graders) may participate and will be enrolled in SESS as a 4-H project. An adult is asked to accompany 4th – 6th grade members at all meetings. All parents are welcome at meetings.
To participate, parents must sign a consent form and pay $10 to help pay for ammunition and other expenses.
