Camp Receives Grant from YSSA
Thanks to the grant-writing efforts of camp volunteers Don Koehler and Larry Davis, the Board of Directors of the Youth Shooting Sports Alliance (YSSA) selected Camp Ondessonk to receive an in-kind grant of equipment and supplies for the 2015 Summer Camp season.
The much-appreciated gifts included 5 cases of .22 target cartridges, 20 shooting glasses, and 3 firearms cleaning kits with a value of more than $1,500, according to Steve Miller, Executive Director of YSSA.
The Youth Shooting Sports Alliance (YSSA) was organized to address two important challenges regarding the recruitment and retention of new shooters:
- Identify and support the needs of successful and safe youth programs
- Provide leadership in the development and promotion of family-friendly shooting range facilities to encourage continued participation in the shooting sports
Camp Ondessonk is excited about these developments within our target sports program, and the continued support from volunteers and friends. Come see our new rifle range pavilion and equipment at the 2015 Open House on May 30, 2015!
