  Youth Rifle Program

   

  This educational program is open to all youth.  The Youth Rifle Program uses the Itasca Gun Club indoor range to shoot from December/January to March/April.  Intro/practice sessions run weekly, from 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM on Tuesday evenings. Young shooters between the ages of 11 – 18 may sign up if they can demonstrate safe rifle handling. Both females and males, non-club members and club members may sign up to join the Youth Rifle Program.  There is no cost for this program.

  
  

  All shooting is supervised by an adult Range Safety Officer.  Parents are welcome to come and watch, as the indoor range includes an observation room, where you can watch the shooting from behind glass, so you don't need hearing protection when .22's are being fired. 

  
  

  The program is open to all youth 11-18 years of age.  All equipment is supplied, but participants may use their own rifles.  The first night is sign up and equipment assignment.   

  
  

  This is a precision NRA 4 position training program so kids can learn how to shoot accurately; prone, sitting, kneeling and standing.  Safety is foremost, students will learn proper positions, breathing, sight alignment and trigger control.  Awards are presented as they advance in ability.  We hope to see you there.

  
  

  There may be some travel to competitions if that becomes an option.  
  

  
  

  Although this is all about kids learning to shoot, this program does not have any connection to the DNR Youth Hunter Safety program.

  This is the MN DNR class that's required for youth hunting in Minnesota, DNR Youth Firearm Safety (FAS). This is the field day, for youths who have completed the online portion of the class on their own.  There's more information available at Hunter Education/Firearms Safety Certification for Youth | Minnesota DNR (state.mn.us)

  
  

  These classes fill up VERY quickly. Itasca Gun Club continues to try to get more instructors certified and offer more classes.  The instructors are 100% volunteers and are trained and certified by the Minnesota DNR.

  
  

  These classes are important enough to us that if instructors want to offer classes in September and October, we will pre-empt almost any other scheduled classroom use for these FAS classes.
