SPP Hosts Special Demo at 4-H National Shooting Championships

The Scholastic Pistol Program (SPP) was recently invited to host a demonstration during the prestigious 4-H Shooting Sports National Championships in Grand Island, Nebraska.

The event was held at the Heartland Public Shooting Park on June 25, with 4-H coaches and competitors spending the afternoon testing their skills on the SPP GO FAST stage.

Joining SSSF staffers Ben Berka and Scott Moore were industry partners Ed Fitzgerald of GLOCK and Tom Yost of Smith & Wesson, who supplied the firearms. Also on hand from Vista Outdoor was Ryan Bronson, who supplied CCI rimfire ammo for the demo.

The Scholastic Shooting Sports Foundation would like to thank Conrad Arnold, Program Coordinator, 4-H National Shooting Sports, for the invitation.

Thanks also to Bill Starkey and Jacob Schwan of Heartland Public Shooting Park for supplying a great range and staff to make the event a success. For those in Nebraska (4-H or not) who are interested in starting an SPP team, Bill and Jacob have offered Heartland’s support. If you are interested in starting an SPP team in Nebraska, please contact Scott Moore, jsmoore@sssfonline.com or Tammy Mowry, tmowry@sssfonline.com.
