The eight-week league will meet every Tuesday, beginning Sept. 17, 2024, at Lake Erie Arms – a 94,000-square-foot indoor public complex that houses multiple 25-yard and 100-yard ranges, an indoor clay house, virtual simulator, sales as well as a café and upscale member club. The facility is located just a short drive from CMP’s Port Clinton headquarters.
“The CMP is grateful for this opportunity to expand our outreach with Lake Erie Arms and to continue supporting marksmanship opportunities throughout the year,” said Christie Sewell, CMP’s Chief Programs Officer.
“I’ve personally used the indoor ranges at Lake Erie Arms in the past and have been very impressed with the helpful staff as well as the outstanding accommodations,” she went on. “We’re more than happy to encourage others to explore this local facility for themselves through this enjoyable event.”
The weekly co-ed Bullseye League will be conducted in a single-person format, challenging participants to on-target accuracy. Both beginner and advanced levels will be offered, with a standard course of fire at 25 yards with .22LR or .45ACP pistols. Pistols are also available for rent!
CMP’s Pistol Manager, Jim Henderson, will be present during the league and will offer a Beginner’s Class on Sept. 17 at 5 p.m. for anyone new to the sport or those with questions on how to improve his or her marksmanship skills.
To add to the fun, the CMP will award Gift Certificates ($100, $75, and $50) to the top three overall league participants and a $100 CMP Gift Certificate to the top beginner.
