Qualified instructors introduce them to the world of shooting sports.
This enhances their educational experience at Hillsdale College.
Called the John Anthony Halter Shooting Sports Education Center, it covers about 113 acres.
On the grounds are a variety of shotgun ranges and an archery range.
We received the gift to establish a shooting team, said Grant.
We were able to use the money from the donation to purchase the property and began modestly.
It started with one range and a portable toilet and grew to the huge facility we have today.
It is obviously an important part of the schools commitment to protecting the Second Amendment.
It was a special opportunity for the students that theyll have for the rest of their lives.
So they have to be tough.
Theyre out practicing when it is raining or even snowing.
It is fantastic that Springfield Armory recognized our commitment to the Second Amendment, said Grant.
It has helped us to educate the next generation of gun owners.
