14th Annual "Pick Up the Burn" Clean up Event!
"Partnering to preserve our recreational target shooting rights"
It is important that we, as members of the gun community known as Northwest Firearms, make a strong showing at this event. The other recreation groups really want us to be actively involved because they have hope and faith in our efforts to make a difference in the way our Forest is treated. We'd like to see at least 20 volunteers here!
Be there for the Coffee, Donuts, Safety Briefing, Music and Sign-in at 8 am!
