ATTENTION ALL SPORTSMEN AND WOMEN: The 2016
Wisconsin Conservation Congress Annual Convention will be held here in
Manitowoc, at the Holiday Inn, 4601 Calumet Ave. The dates are May 12th
WCC Executive Council will be meeting at 2pm, then on Friday the 13th
starting at 6:30AM till 5:00PM there are meetings and Raffles and Exhibits, and
on Saturday the 14th, everything starts at 8:30AM till 11AM when the
convention ends. The Public is welcome to attend all three days and it gives
you a chance to see how laws are made by the sportsmen across the state. The
Manitowoc Gun Club is opening up their trap shooting from 4:30 to 7:00PM on
Thursday night for all delegates.
Also for everyone to see, the Manitowoc Gun Club
will be hosting a trap Shoot for over 500 youths from around the State
of Wisconsin starting on May 19 until May 22. What a wonderful thing the
Gun Club is doing to promote the sport of shooting to the youth. I only wish we
can have more individuals to help out for that event and to join the gun club.
We (meaning us older members) only wish more youths would please get involved
in the Outdoors and in the shooting sports. We need younger people to help take
out what we older members have worked so hard for, and your help is needed to
introduce younger people to the outdoors and a sportsman club of your choosing.
The Viking Bow & Gun Club has the following
events set up for the month of May. May 7th from 11am
to 11pm there will be a Poultry Shoot/ Gun Raffle and PIG ROAST. It’s
open to the public. Also on May 15th the club is
holding a “TAKE A SHOT AT CANCER BENEFIT ARCHERY SHOOT” to
benefit the American Cancer Society, and that is also open to the public. It’s
an ALL DAY event.
