 ationships that will carry men into eternity knowi
 ng and serving the Lord.  We often hear about men 
 who had no relationships with their dads and can s
 ee that having a brother in Christ can help them t
 hrough the journey they are on now.\n \n \n \n \n 
 \n \n \n  \n \n \n \n IMPORTANT NOTE!!! COFA will 
 be hosting the men’s and women’s hunt camps during
  the same week in 2026!  While the men will stay a
 nd fellowship in their camp\, the women will also 
 stay and fellowship in their own camp just a short
  drive away. This provides a great opportunity for
  dads and daughters to hunt together during the da
 y\, moms and sons to hunt together\, husbands and 
 wives to hunt together\, or any combination of fam
 ily and friends! \n \n \n \n  \n \n \n \n The sugg
 ested donation is $675 per person.  A non-refundab
 le deposit of $350 will guarantee your spot on the
  hunt.  The remaining $325 is to be received by CO
 FA no later than Oct 1\, 2026.  Youth (17 and unde
 r) only require the suggested donation deposit of 
 $350.\n \n \n \n  \n \n \n \n YOUR SPOT IS NOT GUA
 RANTEED UNTIL THE DEPOSIT IS RECEIVED BY COFA.\n \
 n \n \n  \n \n \n \n To hold your spot\, Click the
  REGISTER NOW button to submit your donation. \n \
 n \n \n This is a great opportunity to bring yours
 elf for a once in lifetime experience.  Bring a fr
 iend\, churched or unchurched\, God does not discr
 iminate.  Enjoy the Colorado mountains\, and proba
 bly hear the gospel like you have never heard it b
 efore.  Make new friends\, or join up with old fri
 ends\, while hunting Colorado’s high country. Spac
 es fill up fast\, so contact us or register to res
 erve your spot.\n \n \n \n For questions or additi

 /p>\n \n <p>&nbsp\;</p>\n \n <h2>The history of th
 e COFA Kids&#39\; Free Paper Turkey Target Shoot</
 h2>\n \n <p>While watching a movie based on the li
 fe story of Sergeant Alvin York\, a World War 1 co
 ngressional medal (CMH) honor winner\, there was a
  part in the movie where Alvin was in a turkey sho
 ot as a young man. The turkey shoot took place in 
 the hills of Tennessee. Several COFA members have 
 seen this movie and we thought it looked like a gr
 eat event for our kids. COFA&#39\;s free Kids&#39\
 ; Turkey Shoot is for <strong>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 experien
 ce 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 safely hold and reach the trigger
  of a bb gun.</p>\n \n <p>&nbsp\;</p>\n \n <h2>How
  it Works</h2>\n \n <p><a href="http://cofausa.org
 /wp-content/uploads/Turkey-Score.jpg"><img alt="Tu
 rkey-Score.jpg" src="http://cofausa.org/wp-content
 /uploads/Turkey-Score.jpg" style="width:300px\;hei
 ght:200px\;float:right\;margin:5px 10px\;" /></a><
 /p>\n \n <p>The kids will shoot a designated amoun
 t of BB&#39\;s at paper targets to see if they can
  win a frozen turkey. The scorers will add up tota
 l amount of hits near bullseye to determine the wi
 nner. Boys and girls are put into age brackets (8-
 9\, 10-11\, 12-13\, 14-15). A frozen turkey is awa
 rded to the winner of each age category! Four priz
 es per age group! COFA provides the BB guns so eve
 ryone has a fair chance at shooting. We don&#39\;t
  allow personal BB guns...just COFA&#39\;s!</p>\n 
 \n <p>&nbsp\;</p>\n \n <h2>Why We Do It</h2>\n \n 
 <p>One of the purposes of the Kids&#39\; Turkey Sh
 oot is to get them involved in the outdoors and aw
 ay from sitting on the couch playing with their el
 ectronics. Our kids today\, for the most part\, ha
 ve no clue how much fun it can be doing fun things
  in the outdoors. That&#39\;s what COFA does so we
 ll\, it helps families and individuals connect wit
 h each other while doing activities like camping\,
  fishing\, ATVing\, hunting\, hiking\, biking\, et
 c. Through COFA&#39\;s events like the Kids&#39\; 
 Turkey Shoot\, fathers and sons reconnect and buil
 d their relationship with each other. Same with mo
 thers and daughters...they reconnect as well. COFA
 &#39\;s ministry is to get families to develop hea
 lthy bonds through outdoor events.</p>\n \n <p>Sig

 g/)\n \n \n \n  \n \n \n \n The history of the COF
 A Kids' Free Paper Turkey Target Shoot\n \n \n Whi
 le watching a movie based on the life story of Ser
 geant Alvin York\, a World War 1 congressional med
 al (CMH) honor winner\, there was a part in the mo
 vie where Alvin was in a turkey shoot as a young m
 an. The turkey shoot took place in the hills of Te
 nnessee. Several COFA members have seen this movie
  and we thought it looked like a great event for o
 ur kids. COFA's free Kids' Turkey Shoot is for boy
 s and girls from 8 to 15 years of age. 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 safely hold and reach the
  trigger of a bb gun.\n \n \n \n  \n \n \n \n How 
 it Works\n \n \n \n \n \n \n The kids will shoot a
  designated amount of BB's at paper targets to see
  if they can win a frozen turkey. The scorers will
  add up total amount of hits near bullseye to dete
 rmine the winner. Boys and girls are put into age 
 brackets (8-9\, 10-11\, 12-13\, 14-15). A frozen t
 urkey is awarded to the winner of each age categor
 y! Four prizes per age group! COFA provides the BB
  guns so everyone has a fair chance at shooting. W
 e don't allow personal BB guns...just COFA's!\n \n
  \n \n  \n \n \n \n Why We Do It\n \n \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.\n
