Columbia, MO – The month of September is a great time to benefit youth shooting sports by taking part in MidwayUSA Foundation’s 2023 Hometown Challenge. This shoot and sweepstakes gives everyone the chance to win over 100 prizes and compete on a national stage, right from their hometown range. Every $20 donation is an entry into the sweepstakes and benefits the youth shooting team or organization of the participant’s choice. Plus, every donation will be matched!
MidwayUSA Foundation Executive Director, G. Scott Reynolds, is excited to offer this annual event. “This fun event is a great way to raise endowment funds and provides a way for the entire community to collaborate. Youth shooting athletes and coaches can really connect with community members of all ages either through a competition hosted at their range or just by offering supporters the chance to win a great prize in the sweepstakes.”
Enter the Sweepstakes!
The sweepstakes portion of this event allows supporters to get involved without competing in the shoot. A variety of prizes, including firearms, ammo, gear, optics, and more, will be awarded at the conclusion of the event. G. Scott Reynolds praised event sponsors, “Our industry sponsors have really stepped up to donate quality prizes that will make Hometown Challenge a success. The prizes offered are items anyone would be thrilled to win!” Every $20 donation in September is an entry into this multi-prize sweepstakes.
All Ages Can Compete!
The 2023 Hometown Challenge shoot and sweepstakes welcomes all ages. Each discipline will recognize the top competitors in a youth category (17 and under) and an adult category (18+).
