It was a bad weekend to be a clay target in the North Okanagan.
The North Okanagan Trap and Skeet Club (NOTSC) hosted the Art Salt Memorial provincial championships for trapshooting over the Victoria Day long weekend and the event saw a record 81,500 targets break into pieces.
91裸聊视频淚t was just a great weekend,91裸聊视频 said Lisa Salt, NOTSC director. 91裸聊视频淲e normally expect over 70-80 people, but we were well over 100 total participants.91裸聊视频
According to Salt, on the first day of the event, (Friday), shooting went for 11 straight hours (8:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.).
91裸聊视频淭here91裸聊视频檚 a lot of different categories and classes for shooting and we had people from all over attend,91裸聊视频 Salt said. 91裸聊视频淲e got a few from Alberta, from the States and a bunch from the Lower Mainland.91裸聊视频
While notoriously a sport for the older population, younger competitors dotted many of the categories, a welcome sign to Salt.
91裸聊视频淎 lot of the younger faces are coming from the Lower Mainland,91裸聊视频 she said. 91裸聊视频淭hey have a really active gun club in Vancouver, with a lot of practice shooters.91裸聊视频
The Club in the Lower Mainland gives out a free clinic the week prior to competition in an effort to get more people interested.
Salt was thankful for the numerous volunteers who helped put on the four-day competition, as it required a lot of hard work. Their next major shoot will be during the Labour Day long weekend in September.
91裸聊视频淭he Labour Day Classic is next, but we do have a league where we shoot once a month,91裸聊视频 Salt explained. 91裸聊视频淲e practice on Sunday and Wednesday91裸聊视频檚 as well.91裸聊视频
