Lodge # 213 with the actual shoot on Saturday morning.  The banquet and awards program highlighted Saturday evening with everyone enjoying the fellowship of the evening and the honoring of the winners.

Looking ahead, our 2025 state shoot will be held on November 8, 2025, and the regional shoot will be held in March 2026.  Details on those shoots will be posted as they become available.
