USO of Wisconsin Military Youth SCTP Shooting Scholarship

USO logoSome SCTP athletes in Wisconsin have a unique opportunity to get help with the purchase of the shooting supplies and equipment they need this year. The USO of Wisconsin is offering 10 scholarships to military youth — those under the age of 18 with a parent, guardian, or sibling currently serving in the U.S. military. Each scholarship awarded will total $300.

For military youth who shoot in the SCTP in Wisconsin, this is your chance to help reduce the expense of being involved in the clay target shooting sports.

If selected, awardees will receive the scholarship via a $300 credit with the SCTP. That credit will be available to use to purchase ammunition, shooting supplies, shooting gear, and safety equipment available through the SCTP.
