Project S.A.F.E.
Project SAFE (Shooting Awareness, Fun and Education) teaches youth many valuable life skills. It provides a place to learn teamwork. Safety and responsibility while using firearms and archery equipment is our primary goal. We have trained volunteers to lead clubs in BB, Shotgun and Archery.
Youth may try out any of these programs without cost. We offer three (3) practices before a commitment to the programs are made.
