Guys, I thought some of you might appreciate an opportunity to support some young people doin' it right.
I got onto this through a very good friend of mine, High Master in NRA High Power, who has mentored a young lady into quite a target shooter. Now she's off to college and part of their rifle team, and they are really making a mark.
What's that you're saying? Can there really still be a school out there with a rifle team! YES THERE IS, several in fact. And I think it'd be great to show them a little support via a donation-- which I have just done. I got a request in the mail since I was part of my pal's mailing list but you can donate too, just go to
http://www.utmsports.com/sport/rifle
Check them out and see what they've accomplished, then go up an click on Development/Marketing and follow the prompts to "donate now", and select the rifle team.
Personally I find it very exciting and encouraging that young people are still being encouraged in this way-- great stuff for now and the future.
If you want to make a comment so they know where this mysterious influx of money comes from, well, I don't want to give out the young lady's name and I don't want to take credit so just put
something like "friend of the student from southwest Michigan".
I hope some of you think it's as worthy as I do. Heck for that matter, check out some of the schools they're shooting against and if one is your alma mater, support them instead (or also).
