Youth gunning program to begin

 

The Santa Ynez Valley Sportsman Association is getting ready to start the 2008 Scholastic Clay Target Program year. The SCTP is more than just another shooting program.

The SCTP is designed to instill in young people a set of personal values and character traits that teach fair play, compassionate understanding, individual responsibility, sportsmanship, self-discipline, and personal commitment -- qualities necessary to become successful and contributing members of society.

 

SCTP activities are designed to incorporate two indispensable elements — safety and fun.

An information meeting will be held on Jan. 11 at 5:30 p.m. at the Santa Ynez Valley Gun Club, on Highway 154 across from the water treatment plant.

Children in 1st through 12th grade are eligible to enroll.

For more information please contact one of the following coaches: Charlie, 686-1419 or 896-9729; Vickie, 688-6625; or Rick, 686-1615 or 680-7356.
