Boy Scout Weekend
1996 Sharon Gun Club/Scouts Canada Invitational Camp
Scouts Canada Games/Competition
Overnight Camping Experience/Competition
Campfire
Sharon Gun Club is once again hosting the highly successful
weekend where Scouts not only enjoy games in the outdoors but
learn to shoot firearms. This year, because of the twofold
increase in camp attendance, Sharon Gun Club is actively
seeking individuals who can come out and help, over the two
days, as instructors and in 1:1 supervision of shooters.
Sharon is providing the facilities, the ammunition (.22 LR; 20
and 12 ga), two hotdog and pop lunches and overnight camping for
those who wish to stay over. All you have to bring is your
firearms! We ask that you be either RO certified; OHA Certified
Handgun Instructors - Club Level; or have successfully taken the
OHA course, and that you hold a currently valid FAC.
The dates are May 31, June 1, June 2, 1996 and we invite you to come
out and have a great time.
If you can help, please telephone Sharon Gun Club at
905-473-2407 and leave your name and telephone number or
email us.
