2023 Summer Rifle Camp for Juniors

Belton Gun Club and Palmetto State Marksmen Association 2023 Smallbore/Air Rifle Summer Camp 

As I write this, we are making preparations for travel in April to the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado. Two Summer Camp alumni are shooting 3-Position Smallbore and one is also shooting Air Rifle in the 2023 Junior Olympics (JO), both having received invitations after their respective JO State Qualifiers. June 19-23, 2023, has been set for the next Summer Camp. These dates have been finalized with Belton Gun Club, the Coaches, and Instructors. I am still working on the daily schedule. We will have an NRA Approved 3-Position match on the last day of Camp. The match will be a 3x20 and Camp will end at the conclusion of the match (before noon). Pre-registration is a MUST as Camp is limited to ten Athletes. This is a non-residential camp and there is no overnight housing on the Club. The Camp will include classroom instruction, and live-fire of rifles on an outdoor range in a formal manner under supervision of NRA Coaches, Instructors, and Range Safety Officers. 

If you are age 13 to 18 and interested in learning OLYMPIC-STYLE 3-Position Shooting, this Camp is for you! We also provide an opportunity for intermediate shooters to get advanced training, put practice rounds downrange and shoot another match before the National Matches. 3-Position Air Rifle is used on High School Teams. 3-Position Smallbore and International (Standing) Air Rifle is used in NCAA, World Cup and Olympic competitions. Belton Gun Club has 3-Position Matches that are NRA Approved. The NRA and CMP also have matches on the regional and national level. Tuition for the entire week of Camp is $175 which includes lunch (Mon.-Thurs.), rifles, ammunition, all shooting equipment, water and snacks. Athletes may bring their own eye and ear protection or use those provided. Athletes with their own match-grade rifles and shooting equipment are encouraged to bring it. Please email me if you are bringing a rifle to Camp.
