“Patriots Unite” Dinner to support 4th Annual 2nd Amendment Rally
In an effort to provide greater opportunity for Members to support the 2nd Amendment Rally, NSSA is uniting with the Beaver County Sportsmen’s Conservation League (BCSCL) in a fundraising dinner at Monaca Turners on Saturday evening, March 4th.
Tickets are $40 each. You are NOT Obligated to attend the Rally by attending the dinner, but if there is enough participation at the fundraiser, the Northside bus will be free for anyone who wants to attend. (Attendees of the fund-raiser are guaranteed a seat on the bus if you wish to attend the Rally.)
The 12th annual Pennsylvania 2nd Amendment Rally will be held in Harrisburg on Monday, May 22nd. This year’s theme is “Make the 2nd Amendment Great Again.” The topics of focus will include Constitutional Carry, State Preemption, Reciprocity, and elimination of the PICS system. All of these are within our grasp.
Spring Trap League Starts March 2nd
Every Fall and Spring NSSA hosts a 12-week trap league that takes place on Thursday Nights. Shooters are divided into 5 teams which compete against each other for shells, prizes, and most importantly, bragging rights at the end of the 12-weeks.
Our Spring League starts Thursday, March 2nd, with a 100 bird pre-season shoot. This shoot is a great opportunity for shooters to dust off their guns and get back out on the range. Following the 100 bird shoot, shooters will be divided into the 5 even teams based on their score and known ability, and these are the teams they will shoot 50 birds each week for throughout the rest of the season.
Sign-up times are 4pm-8pm each Thursday and it costs $10 per week to shoot the league. This cost not only covers the targets each week but also the prizes and the end of the league banquet dinner that we have at the club.
Everyone is welcome, including non members, so we hope to see you out there! Please be advised that during this 12-week league shooters are not required to participate in the league and can opt to shoot practice instead, however league squads will have preference over trap availability.
