The history of the C OFA Kids' Free Paper Turkey Target Shoot
\n
While watching a movie based on the life story of Sergeant Alvin York\, a World War 1 congressional medal (CMH) honor winner\, there was a part in th e movie where Alvin was in a turkey shoot as a you ng man. The turkey shoot took place in the hills o f Tennessee. Several COFA members have seen this m ovie and we thought it looked like a great event f or our kids. COFA's free Kids' Turkey Shoot is for boys and girls from 8 to 15 years of age< /strong>. We at COFA want an event that is fun for kids and a learning experience for them as well. While the competition is only for those between 8 and 15\, kids of any age may participate in the bb gun target shoot as long as they are able to safe ly hold and reach the trigger of a bb gun.

\n
How it Works
\n
\n
The kids will shoot a designated amount of BB's at paper targets to se e if they can win a frozen turkey. The scorers wil l add up total amount of hits near bullseye to det ermine the winner. Boys and girls are put into age brackets (8-9\, 10-11\, 12-13\, 14-15). A frozen turkey is awarded to the winner of each age catego ry! Four prizes per age group! COFA provides the B B guns so everyone has a fair chance at shooting. We don't allow personal BB guns...just COFA's!
\n

\n
Why We Do It
\n
One of th e purposes of the Kids' Turkey Shoot is to get the m involved in the outdoors and away from sitting o n the couch playing with their electronics. Our ki ds today\, for the most part\, have no clue how mu ch fun it can be doing fun things in the outdoors. That's what COFA does so well\, it helps families and individuals connect with each other while doi ng activities like camping\, fishing\, ATVing\, hu nting\, hiking\, biking\, etc. Through COFA's even ts like the Kids' Turkey Shoot\, fathers and sons reconnect and build their relationship with each o ther. Same with mothers and daughters...they recon nect as well. COFA's ministry is to get families t o develop healthy bonds through outdoor events.
