On May 18, LCFA sponsored a skeet shoot at Camp Binachi Shooting Sports benefiting the Betty M Lacy scholarship fund. We had 77 shooters and multiple station sponsors! Thanks to Circle S Ranch Fish House for providing the delicious lunch.
We raised enough money to award two scholarships! Congratulations to Grant Hartman and Garrett Gibson.
