Name: Landon Sievers State: Illinois Program: SCTP Team: Golden Eagle Gun Club
How the SCTP has helped me as a young person: The Scholastic Clay Target Program has taught me many things. It has taught me focus and discipline. It has taught me responsibility and teamwork skills. Another thing that it has taught me is to have confidence and always challenge myself. I have also enjoyed making new friends. These are some of the reasons that I love competing in this program.
