4 Borden High School would like to thank the Club for allowing us to use their facilities for our annual Turkey Shoot. Once again, it was a huge success! Special thanks to range officer and member Doris Ooley for her help and professionalism. Also thank you to Clark County Captain and School Resource officer Nick Mobley for his help in instructing and helping Doris with safety. I feel we do a nice job at Borden implementing activities within our Outdoor Club, which teach students proper gun safety and handling. Our goal is to introduce lifelong hobbies and sports to our students while shedding a positive light on guns and our youth. As an example, we are in our second year of a competitive Trap shooting league. Our students earn a varsity letter for this activity, just like all other sports! We truly appreciate the relationship Borden High School has fostered with the Southern Indiana Rifle and pistol Club. Member, Toby Cheatham
