Shooting Sports Leader Certification Schedule 2019

The dates and locations for the Shooting Sports leader certification trainings have been posted. The closest training will be in Boulder County on April 5–7, 2019. At this training, they will offer certification for Archery, Pistol, Rifle, and Shotgun. Please visit the Larimer County Shooting Sports website to find more details.

We encourage you to strongly consider attending the training and volunteering in the Shooting Sports program. ​Our county has a large, successful program, but we need certified volunteers to continue to offer those opportunities for our 4-H members.

Friend of 4-H 2018: Fort Collins Archery Association

Fort Collins Archery Association was recognized as this year’s Friend of 4-H. FCAA supported the 4-H archery program by allowing national qualifiers to shoot in their weekly shoot during the summer at no charge and also by lending the program 3D targets to use for the county shoot. 

Congratulations and thank you, FCAA!

Club Announcements for October 30, 2018

​Achievement Night is this Friday, November 2 beginning at 6:30 p.m. I hope you all plan on attending. There are members in our club who will be receiving awards so it would be great to show support to them. I also know there will be dessert. It starts with a slideshow, and there are pictures of several club members included. Join us in the exhibit hall at the McKee Building.

Our community service Turning Pens for the Troops will be on Sunday, November 4 at Woodcraft. Members including Cloverbuds and any new members are encouraged to come and turn a wood block into a beautiful pen to send to our service men and women. There is plenty of instruction available so no experience is necessary. Please sign up on the club website under Signups. If there is a time filled up and that is what works for you, email Cindy and we can probably work you in. We need to fill all the time slots as there are over 100 pens to create.

The Foods Project meeting for November will be held next Monday, November 5 at 6:30 p.m. in the McKee building. Anyone interested in a foods project, please attend.
