Niel Schueller, N7944 McCloud Dr., Gleason, WI 54435. Thank you.

At the January 22, 2026 meeting for the member clubs, we awarded several donations to youth programs supported by several clubs. One of the members suggested that we might want to consider raising the annual fee to $30 to allow us to provide additional support. The fees are currently used only for 2 purposes. The first is to pay the costs for the calendar, such as hosting fees, software and domain registration, etc. All work for editing the site and record keeping is done on a volunteer basis. A small reserve is held for unexpected  costs. The remaining funds are distributed to youth and new shooter programs. We are looking for feedback from the member clubs regarding a possible cost increase for the 2027 calendar. Fees were $10 prior to 2017 and increased to $20 in 2017.

I WILL BE SWITCHING TO A DIFFERENT HOSTING SERVICE AND, AS A RESULT, THE SITE MAY BE DOWN FOR A SHORT TIME DURING THE WEEK OF FEBRUARY 8. YOU MAY WISH TO PRINT A COPY OF THE PDF CALENDAR AS A BACKUP FOR WHILE THE SITE IS DOWN. THANK YOU.

Facebook Page

I was made aware
of a Facebook Page with exactly the same name as this website. Please note that
the 2 sites are under separate control, so if you want to post shoot information
on EastWisconsinShotgunSports.org, please be sure to send the information to the

2025 Site
Updates

I have been
receiving information for the 2025 shooting season. If you need to add shoots to
the calendar, please contact me.

The 2025 annual
meeting of the member clubs was held at the Campbellsport Sportsman’s Club on
Jan 23, 2025 at 7:00 pm. There were 2 nominations for donations. We were able to
give each organization $500.00. Recipients were  Watertown Conservation Club
and Maribel Sportsman’s Club Youth
Trap League. Congratulations to the recipients. Our mission
is to help provide funds to organizations that support youth shooting or to
support other charitable shooting organizations. I appreciate the club
representatives who attended the meeting despite the cold weather. Thank
you.


Young Hunters

Many of us are
hunters as well as trap shooters. When should we start taking our children or
grandchildren along with us? Check out the links page for an interesting article
under Miscellaneous Links titled : Young Hunters: When to get children started.


Colleges with
Trap and Skeet Programs

If you enjoy trap
or skeet shooting, are in high school, and you’re planning to attend college,
you might want to consider schools that have strong trap and skeet programs.

Attached is a list
that could help get you connected with a college that can
provide the major you are looking for and competitive shotgun shooting
opportunities.

  • The printed calendar is 2 pages. If your printer supports 2 sided printing, you can
    still have a very useful 1 page calendar. To print only one page, use the
    options on your printer dialog box.
