Everyone shooting got “on the paper” and many managed tight groups (even in the bullseye).  Unabashedly, the coaches and instructors take all the credit for these successes.  The participants got to keep their targets and a pheasant tail feather as a memento.  It was a lot of fun for our PF coaches as well as the public. 

The Park served our volunteers burritos for lunch which HIT THE SPOT too.  In 2026, CPW at Barr Lake may move the event to a springtime date.  Whenever they choose, we expect to be there.
