Second Annual IECRM Sporting Clay Shoot on June 29 – A Fun and Spirited Competition

Nearly 100 IECRM members and their guests participated beginning with a breakfast of burritos and coffee. The friendly competition was open to the Energy, Electrical, and Construction Industries: contractors, general contractors, and the industry associates that support their work. A safety speech followed breakfast and at 9:30am the Shotgun Start commenced with a bang. Each competitor received protective eyewear, earplugs, shotgun shells, and snacks. Throughout the morning, shooters moved from the starting stations to other stations along the creek bottom, and then headed back at 12:30pm for lunch and the awards ceremony.
