After multiple cancelled events, we are finally able to proceed with having our annual Spring Ham Shoot and Gun Raffle on Saturday March 13, 2021. Doors will open by 4:30 pm with the event starting at 5 pm. Obviously, we will be taking extra safety precautions to ensure a fun and safe time.

We will be having 15 ham rounds, 3 cash 50/50 rounds, 2 gun rounds, a ladies round (free) and a kids round (free). And, since we did not get to have our fall shoot, we will be having the Veterans / Active Military round that is free to all veterans and active military members.

There will be 50/50 raffles, table gun raffles, door prizes and food. We will also have our Spring Gun Raffle tickets for sale, and the winners will be pulled at the end of the shoot.

We hope that you will come out and support us, as this is the first real fund raiser we have had since mid-2020.

And remember, you can still get gun tickets online by using the Donate button on www.qfd57.com.
