Volunteers Still Needed to Help Youth Competition

The Illinois State Rifle Association is one of the sponsors of the Academics Integrity Marksmanship (AIM) program youth shoot at the World Shooting Complex in Sparta, Illinois. This is one of the premier youth shooting events in the United States. 

The ISRA needs 30 volunteers a day to help at this event. The volunteers will be helping load magazines, assist the kids shooting and, of course, making sure everyone is safe. The World Shooting Complex is a first class facility that should be seen by anyone interested in shooting sports and Sparta is a beautiful part of Illinois. Please consider traveling to help support this important event and help shape the future of shooting sports in America. 

The dates of the event are Friday the 28th and Saturday the 29th. The times are from 8:30am to 5:00pm on Friday and 9:30am to 5:00pm on Saturday Lunches and refreshments will be provided but if you have special dietary needs, you should bring your own special items. You will receive a special ISRA volunteer hat and an ISRA goody bag. You will also receive a work day card which will be entered into a drawing for a new Ruger 10-22. If you work both days you will receive two chances to win the Ruger 10-22. 

Please call the office at 815-635-3198 and ask for Shirley as soon as possible. You can also send an e- mail to member@isra.org with your information (name, address, phone number, e-mail address and availability). We will need to have the final roster completed by July 25th. 

This is one of those events that helps Pass the Torch of Freedom to the next generation. I look forward to seeing you there. 
 

Thank You, 

Richard Pearson, Executive Director
