The event is free and lots of fun. Each kid will receive a T-shirt. Prizes will be given away and lunch will be provided for the whole family. There will be an opportunity to sign up your child as an NWTF JAKES member. Each child signed up will be entered into a drawing for a gun to be given away that day. Memberships are $10 per child.
Fishing, archery, shooting ranges, simulators, inflatables, nature walk, trap shooting, along with many other kids games and events are just a few of the outdoor activities they can enjoy. So come out and enjoy the outdoors at the 2010 JAKES DAY.
Students must 10 years or older with a hunter safety course to participate in trap shooting. Bring your hunter safety card if you plan to participate.
