Mission Statement:
The primary objectives of the Howell Shooting Club are the
promotion and advancement of safe shooting sports to its members
and to be instrumental in creating a more positive image to the non-shooting community. The Club is proactively family friendly and encourages family participation.
The HOWELL SHOOTING CLUB
is unique in that it gives the shooter an
opportunity to engage in scheduled activities, as well as, practice or plinking
on an individual, or family basis.The Club regularly offers NRA Basic and Advanced classes. The Club's support of young shooters is evidenced by its annual Howell NRA Youth Shooting Sports Camp held every summer. Registration for all training, classes and the Howell NRA Youth Shooting Sports Camp is open to the public.
In addition to formal training programs, the Howell Club has a variety of formal and informal shooting events for its members. While some events are competitive in nature, Club members view such events as an opportunity to get to know one another and introduce their favorite shooting sport to others.
The emphasis at all events is on safety, learning and having fun. When you show up for an event for the first time, you won't be made to feel like an intruder. We encourage members to participate in all events.
Organized club shoots are held the first Sunday of every month May - October, immediately after the general membership meeting. These fun shoots are designed to appeal to shooters at all levels of experience and to promote friendly, inexpensive competition within the Club membership. The event varies from month-to-month and may use a 22 rifle, pistol or shotgun. It may include falling plates, frangible targets or a trap shoot. Archery events may be paper target or simulated hunting events. Whatever the Match Director dreams up for a given month, you can be sure it will be fun for the entire family.
For those interested in a more casual shooting environment, Club facilities are plentiful enough to allow at least one open shooting range during almost all scheduled events.
