Shooting Sports

Congratulations to our youth who attended the 2024 Colorado State Shooting Sports Championships in Pueblo. The results for the competition are posted on the Colorado 4-H Shooting Sports website (https://www.orionresults.com/team/TournamentPage.aspx?MatchID=1.3243.2024080409322342.2).

Our very own Gabe Russo was the 2024 Colorado State Grand Champion in Junior Compound Archery! For those of you who do not know Gabe, he is committed to practicing archery - both at our practices and on his own time. He also helps the shooting sports leaders set up and tear down at practices. His dedication and hard work have paid off, so way to go Gabe! (Gabe is pictured above at Archery practice.)
