On September 19th, the Vermillion Community College used our trap range for 16 students who had signed up for a recreation class. They each got to shot four (4) rounds of trap for a total of 100 shots each. Feed back was the same this year as last year. They had a great time. You could see improvement in each round. Four Club members helped put this day of safe shooting on: Bill Hammond, Dick Klinzing, Jim Richards and Dave Youngman.
