|
I'm still recovering from running the rifle shooting in my Club's annual Child's Wish Shoot.
This is for terminal kids and their Families to come and shoot archery, trap, and .22 rifles.
I supervised over 30 ROs while having over 250 Kids and Families. They went through over 8000 rounds of ammo, and all had a safe and great time.
Surprising that no liberals ever show up at these shooting events.
I think they are afraid that they will see shooting what it really is.
A great Family function.
Eric

This year Elvis, we had a lot of really bad off bunch of kids. You really see how great their Parents are, and how they deal with their problems. [In a very positive way]
All of my ROs have had experience with this type of Child, and every one showed up after I called and invited them.

Having been involved in child cancer here in NZ and watching my younger sons best mate succumb to it I take every opportunity to give kids the best time they can have with what little time they have left.......
NZ has 'Make a wish foundation' which allowed my sons mate the ability to tandem skydive out of an RNZAF Hercules, they bought him 2 Blow Karts because if he had two; his mates could go with him as well which they all did.
Hats off to you and all your supporters on giving these families something they will cherish for ever.
