Youth Shoot — The Next Generation of Marksmen!
Young Shooters, this one is for YOU!
VFW Post 6073 Range is proud to host our Youth Shoot — a fun, safe, and welcoming shooting event designed specifically for the young members of our veteran community. Whether you are a child or grandchild of a Post member, a member of the Sons of the VFW, or a young person interested in the shooting sports, we want to see you out on the range!
This is a completely judgment free event. All skill levels are not just welcome — they are celebrated. Whether you have been shooting for years or have never held a firearm in your life, our Rangemaster and experienced members will be on hand to guide, assist, and encourage every young participant throughout the day.
Never shot before? No problem! First time shooters will receive personal one on one instruction covering:
- Proper firearm handling and grip
- Stance and sight alignment basics
- Range safety rules and procedures
- Hands on practice in a safe and supportive environment
Don’t own a firearm yet? That’s okay too! Come on out, learn the basics, and see if shooting is the right hobby for you. We have you covered.
