The Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) is set to host another session of its popular Junior Rifle Club, a weekly group that introduces firearm safety, marksmanship fundamentals, air rifle competition experience and life skills through fun instruction on the range. Due to take place in two different states, these clinics are perfect for young people of all skill levels. Space is limited for this popular junior activity, so be sure to sign up early!

The next sessions are set at the Gary Anderson CMP Competition Center in Ohio as well as the Judith Legerski CMP Competition Center in Alabama. The 10-week Winter Session will begin Tuesday, Jan. 14, for Alabama; and Tuesday, Jan. 28, for Ohio. An informational “Meet & Greet” meeting will also be held Jan. 7 (Alabama) and Jan. 21 (Ohio) for those interested in learning more before the session officially begins.

The Junior Rifle Club will be conducted every Tuesday evening from 5 to 7 p.m. EST and 4 to 6 p.m. CST. Fee to join is $50, with no prior experience necessary. No equipment? No problem: The CMP will also loan equipment to those in need. Participants in the club will not only learn about the sport of marksmanship but also character building proficiencies like discipline, self-control, goal setting and more – all with an emphasis on safety.

Each training session is led by former NCAA Division I rifle athletes. In Ohio, instructors include CMP Junior Rifle Camps manager Ryan Hinson, who was an athlete at Morehead State University, along with CMP program coordinator Alana Kelly, who was previously a member at the University of Mississippi. Alabama will be led by new Competition Center manager, JT Schnering. Find more details and registration information on the CMP website at https://thecmp.org/cmp-junior-rifle-club/.
