Bridge II Sports had a wonderful opportunity of hosting a Skeet and Trap Shoot in partnership with Buckhorn Gun Club, the
James Rogers Family and Turning Point Nation. Buckhorn Gun club is located in Mebane, North Carolina. The members of
the club were excellent teachers and encouragers, and they all extended a open hand of friendship that was second to none!
We had about 100 people attend the event, of which 30 were adaptive shooters. The physical challenges that were
represented were spinal cord injury: para and quad, amputee and Spina Bifida. A barbecue lunch was on sale for $8 a plate,
and a raffle was put together to raise funds for this program. The day was a lot of fun! We had first time shooters and skilled
shooters who discovered that shooting from a chair did not change there ability to shoot well.
Legs Don't Work brought up one of their Paramobiles that allowed shooters who could not stand on their own to be raised up to
be able to shoot in an upright position.
We were honored to have representation from the military forces to share in this experience too.
However, we need help. The numbers showed an interest and a need for this type of adaptive sport. If you are interested in
helping develop this program, please contact us at Bridge II Sports. We would welcome your input. We are in the process of
putting a team together to focus on the adaptive skeet and trap program. ashley@bridge2sports.org
