The history of the COFA Ki ds' Free Paper Turkey Target Shoot
\n \nWh
ile watching a movie based on the life story of Se
rgeant Alvin York\, a World War 1 congressional me
dal (CMH) honor winner\, there was a part in the m
ovie where Alvin was in a turkey shoot as a young
man. The turkey shoot took place in the hills of T
ennessee. Several COFA members have seen this movi
e and we thought it looked like a great event for
our kids. COFA's free Kids' Turkey Shoot is for boys and girls from 8 to 15 years of age. We at COFA want an event that is fun for ki
ds and a learning experience for them as well. Whi
le the competition is only for those between 8 and
15\, kids of any age may participate in the bb gu
n target shoot as long as they are able to safely
hold and reach the trigger of a bb gun.
How it Works
\n \n
The kids will shoo t a designated amount of BB's at paper targets to see if they can win a frozen turkey. The scorers w ill add up total amount of hits near bullseye to d etermine the winner. Boys and girls are put into a ge brackets (8-9\, 10-11\, 12-13\, 14-15). A froze n turkey is awarded to the winner of each age cate gory! Four prizes per age group! COFA provides the BB guns so everyone has a fair chance at shooting . We don't allow personal BB guns...just COFA's!\n \n
\n \n
Why We Do It
\n \n < p>One of the purposes of the Kids' Turkey Shoot is to get them involved in the outdoors and away fro m sitting on the couch playing with their electron ics. Our kids today\, for the most part\, have no clue how much fun it can be doing fun things in th e outdoors. That's what COFA does so well\, it hel ps families and individuals connect with each othe r while doing activities like camping\, fishing\, ATVing\, hunting\, hiking\, biking\, etc. Through COFA's events like the Kids' Turkey Shoot\, father s and sons reconnect and build their relationship with each other. Same with mothers and daughters.. .they reconnect as well. COFA's ministry is to get families to develop healthy bonds through outdoor events.\n \nSign up to be notified of fut ure COFA events at C OFATips.
