Kosko Club Championship Shoot
President's Report
If sporting clays is your favorite clay target sport, you need to visit Kosko Shotgun Sports Complex to shoot our new and improved course. Thanks to the many volunteers, the western loop has been completed! Read more about it in the Green Mile File.

Skeet shooting is going strong! This summer, we've hosted several NSSA registered shoots. The last registered shoot for the year will be a 4X50 on September 10. Read more in Skeet News.

We are so proud of the success of our SCTP team, Kosko Dust Devils! If you happen to see one of these young shooters at the club, congratulate them. They are GOOD!! If you ask nicely, they may even help you with your game. Highlights of their summer success are listed a little further below.

Corporate shooting events are becoming popular at Kosko. We have already hosted several and have more scheduled. Please show your support for your club by volunteering to help. There is a VOLUNTEER SIGN UP SHEET on a clipboard, hanging on the south wall.

The board would like to thank Geoff Norris for his many years of service to our club! THANKS, GEOFF! BEST WISHES IN ALL YOUR FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

The board of directors welcomes Glen McCormick as our newest board member. When you see Glen around the club, please thank him for stepping up and serving.

The board of directors has voted to increase membership dues to $75.00, effective immediately. The board thanks you for your continued dedication to Kosko!

We always need volunteers for a variety of tasks. Remember, if we all do a little, no one has to do a lot!

Green Mile File
(Sporting Clays)
Our sporting clays course has gone through some major changes! We have added three new stations and have reconfigured most of the original stands. We now have an exciting, varied and FUN course of 15 stations, covering a one mile trail. We have named our course "The Green Mile".

Our new sporting clays crew has done a wonderful job on the maintenance of our equipment and the manicuring of our course. We have set the traps to provide a great experience for all levels of shooters. We invite you to come out and experience The Green Mile for yourself!

We will be hosting the 1st Annual Grace Lancer Invitational on September 30th. Several colleges will be represented. Please come out and support the Grace College Shooting Sports team. Go Lancers!
