Keep Athens Beautiful is inviting teams and individual shooters to take aim at a good cause during its 12th Annual Shoot Out fundraiser, set for Friday, Aug. 8, at 5H Shooting Sports, located at 19105 County Road 4235 in Frankston.
The event runs from 7:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and features a sporting clay course. It’s a challenging and fun day outdoors for experienced shooters and newcomers alike.
Registration begins at 7:45 a.m., with a shotgun start at 8:30 a.m. and lunch and awards at noon. Awards will go to the top three teams, and Top Gun buckles will be awarded to the highest-scoring male, female and youth shooter (17 and under).
The cost is $125 for individual shooters and $425 per four-person team. Golf cart rentals are available for $35, though participants are encouraged to bring their own if possible.
Sponsorship opportunities are also available. A $1,000 Presenting Sponsorship includes a complimentary team and name recognition in all event publicity. Additional options include Range Sponsorship ($500), Clay Sponsorship ($250), and prize donations. The sponsorship deadline is Aug. 5.
