Lakewood Products to Support SCTP

Written on .

Lakewood Products, a Division of Midwest Textile Manufacturing Corporation and the leader in shooting, hunting, and fishing protective cases, proudly announces the company’s support of the Scholastic Shooting Sports Foundation (SSSF) and the Scholastic Clay Target Program (SCTP).

As steadfast believers in maintaining options for America’s youth to participate in the shooting sports, Lakewood Products is proud to announce their support of the SSSF and the SCTP. The SCTP’s mission of providing youth from elementary grades through high school and college the opportunity to experience the fun and challenges of the Skeet, Trap and Sporting Clays marries well with Lakewood’s product line and business ethos of supporting shooting sports. “We believe in the shooting sports and our youth’s participation, as such. The format that the SSSF and SCTP provides is an excellent opportunity for today’s young people to gain experience in shooting and an exceptional pathway to various specialties in competitive arenas,” stated Lakewood Products’ President, Steve Wagnitz.

By providing young athletes a forum to safely and enjoyably participate in a high quality, team-based sports program, each of the SCTP’s exciting disciplines are led by trained and dedicated adult coaches in a supportive environment focused on the safe handling and use of firearms. “What a better way to get kids involved in shooting than to have them bust clay targets in a safe and structured environment that lacks the additional pressure of hunting and other common barriers to entry. It starts out with having fun and opens the pathway to see what’s next – with tracks that can potentially lead to Olympic-level competition,” Wagnitz added.

Lakewood Products 2019 product introductions included the B136 Takedown Shotgun case, a perfect fit for the needs of participants in shotgun-related shooting sports. In addition to this recent offering Lakewood has also introduced the B136 Takedown Shotgun Case in a 1 Barrel, 2 Barrel, and 3 Barrel option in addition to the perennial shot gun specific offerings like the D330 Range Bag and B140 Shotgun Case.

The soft-sided hard case composition of Lakewood cases make them perfect for all methods of travel thanks to construction of rugged and durable TSAand airline compliantmaterials. Available at www.lakewoodproducts.com and at the best retailers nation-wide, Lakewood cases are a protective vault for expensive firearms and the ultimate companion for any hunting or range travel. Lakewood Cases combine 100% Made in the USA construction with exclusive designs that are purpose-built to be lightweight, convenient and durable with exceptional protection.

Pre-Registration for SCTP nationals begins May 15th, 2019

Written on .

Like last year, due to the extremely large volume of teams and coaches trying to squad for the National Championships,  we will again be allowing teams to “pre-squad” for the 2019 SCTP National Championships at the Cardinal Center in Marengo, Ohio.

Here’s how it will work:
1. Send a check for the proper amount of all squads and athletes to the Burlington WI address post marked no earlier than 12:01am on May 15th and no later than midnight on May 22nd.

2. Money received is “Non-Refundable”. Pre-registration fees will not be returned for any athletes that do not attend the SCTP National Championships.

3. All squads must be “pre-built” on your team’s home page for the National Championships. Teams will be allowed to change athletes as they see fit later but all squads must be ready to populate the shooting schedule.

4. SCTP will populate the squad assignments based on the time and date received (time stamp) on the envelope containing your paperwork and check. PLEASE send by regular mail with NO signature required. Sending paperwork requiring a signature may delay your paperwork! 

5. Download and complete the pre-registration form (also available on the SSSF website) that provides your information along with dates and times you would like your squads assigned. Please give us 3 options for times and days.

6. Teams will be notified of their pre-registration by May 29 and before normal registration which opens on June 1st.

Note:
Completed form(s) must be sent in with payment either by credit card or by check, no payment sent in with forms will result in no squads entered for that team. These payments are “nonrefundable”!! If you pay for 15 athletes and only 12 show up, the other 3 athlete’s fees are not returned.

Completed forms and payments must be mailed to us no sooner than May 15, 2019 and sent to:
