Nearly 100 youths from around Minnesota lined up to learn about conservation, the union trades, firearm safety\u2014and of course, to bust some clays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe energy was very high. It was great to see the excitement,\u201d says TJ Delaney, a member of Sheet Metal Workers Local 10 and volunteer team leader for the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two\u00a0dozen volunteers from the United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers &amp; Allied Workers; Roofers Local 96;\u00a0International Association of Bridge, Structural, Ornamental and Reinforcing Iron Workers;\u00a0Iron Workers Local 512 and Cigna helped to make sure that the event was safe and fun for all kids aged nine to 17. They volunteered at every station, ranging from .22 rifles to archery to building and painting birdhouses. In addition, union members volunteered alongside shooting coaches from the community and local high schools to help the rookies and the veteran shooters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-see-also-david-hogg-defends-gun-rights\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/david-hogg-defends-gun-rights\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"union-sportsmen-break-records-and-clays-at-annual-get-youth-outdoors-day\" title=\"Union Sportsmen Break Records and Clays at Annual Get Youth Outdoors Day\">David Hogg Defends Gun Rights?!?<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/USA1.jpg\" alt=\"A youngster learning how to shoot a shotgun.\" class=\"wp-image-184420\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Union roofers and iron workers as well as local shooting coaches and high school teams provided youth with hands-on instruction in riflery and sporting clays.

This year my granddaughter also participated. The smiles and excitement were a testament to the event\u2019s impact, especially when the kids were asked if they broke any clays. And they did!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get Youth Outdoors Day is part of a series of free, community-based youth outreach events\u00a0organized under Work Boots on the Ground\u2014the USA\u2019s flagship conservation program\u2014and\u00a0supported by national partners Provost Umphrey Law Firm, Union Plus and Humana as well as USA founding partners UIG, ULLICO, Bank of Labor, AFL-CIO Investment Trust Corporation and Buck Knives.
