The Victoria Rotary Club and the Boys & Girls Club of Victoria continued their partnership by hosting the twelfth annual charity sporting clay shoot. Monies earned by this event go to benefit local area youth. The Boys & Girls Club share goes into its programs which are aimed at giving youth an avenue to a wholesome, productive life. The Rotary share goes into local college scholarships, local and international youth leadership training, and support to local youth development programs of other charitable organizations.

The Clay Shoot was held on April 25 & 26, 2009, at Beck Ranch, 9023 Salem Road. This is the location used last year--out Salem Road just before the creek bridge. The format was similar to past shoots--Saturday for registration, practice, and the Boys & Girls Club Field Day, then that evening, a steak dinner, Calcutta, and charity auction held at the event site as part of the entertainment at the dinner meeting of the Rotary Club. Sunday, the clay shoot began at 11:00 AM. The shooters shot ten targets at each of five stations to determine their class using the modified Lewis system.

The number of shooters was limited to 125 adults--first come first served. Shooters  could register individually or as part of a corporate sponsorship package. Registration for individuals was unchanged--$125 or $500 for a five-person squad and youth shot free as in the past. Check the link below for sponsorship information. Since this is a fundraiser we encourage buying a sponsorship package. Youth should register at the same time as their adult sponsors.

At the Sunday afternoon Sporting Clay Shoot, the youth participants shot along with their sponsors. The shooting game, flurry, was available to add to the fun.
