You can read the conference program at http://www.odcmp.com/Programs/YouthLeadership.htm. You can register on-line for the conference or any of the training courses during the week preceding the conference at http://clubs.odcmp.com/cgi-bin/matchReg ... atchID=353.
The conference is organized in cooperation with the NRA Education & Training Division and the USA Shooting Youth Development Office. NRA, USA Shooting and CMP staff members will be on hand to discuss their programs. Representatives of other shooting sports organizations like the NSSF will also be available to report on exciting new programs. The Youth Leadership Conference is for anyone who is involved in promoting youth shooting sports. Consider attending the conference at Camp Perry on 8-10 October if you are active in any of these areas:
One of the great things about this conference is the opportunity it affords to meet and learn from other junior shooting leaders. In addition to the many representatives of national shooting sports organizations, most CMP State Junior Directors will be in attendance.
The 2004 conference program includes:
· Special reports on the shooting events of the XXVIII Olympic Games and Paralympic Games in Athens
· A workshop on gun safety
· How-to presentations on shooting techniques by U. S. Olympic and Army coaches
· A how-to on organizing competitions
· Special presentations on the care, cleaning and accurizing junior target rifles
· Junior program updates from participating organizations
The conference begins on Friday afternoon, 8 October, with range shooting that includes an opportunity to try the CMP Rimfire Sporter game and the NSSF’s new Scholastic Rifle event. That will be followed by a fun-filled John C. Garand Match for all conference participants; the CMP will provide rifles and ammunition.
The Youth Leadership Conference registration fee of $150 provides three nights of housing at Camp Perry, all meals from Friday noon through Sunday evening, entry fees and ammunition for the Garand Match and all conference materials. Special events include a Saturday night clambake and a Sunday evening reception at the home of the DCM, Gary Anderson, with a chance to see his collection of target shooting archives and Olympic Games memorabilia.
This conference is the best opportunity junior shooting leaders at all levels will have to bring themselves up to date on the resources, contacts and technical information they need to be more effective junior shooting leaders. If you or a representative of your organization has not yet made plans to attend the National Youth Shooting Sports Leadership Conference, put 8-10 October on your calendar now.
