Clausen Ranch Threatened by Cameron Peak Fire

The Clausen Ranch was threatened by the Cameron Peak Fire last weekend. Our Shooting Sports members know it as the location for both .22 Rifle and Muzzleloading practices, and Clausens also hosted the county shoot and state shoot for Air Rifle this year.

Click here to watch a news story about Jerry's quick work to create fire lines and save his property from the Cameron Peak Fire.

We are thinking of Jerry and his family, as well as all of the other families affected by the fire.

Muzzleloading State Shoot Location Change

Due to the fires and the amount of smoke at the range, we are moving the Muzzleloading State Shoot to Fort Lupton. 

Our schedule will remain the same. Please be on time for your check-in. If we are running ahead of schedule we will bump times up slightly to get things done promptly.

Here is the information about the location:

Fort Lupton Range

2001 Historic Parkway
Fort Lupton, Colorado

 
 
 

Directions

Travel south on Highway 85 to County Road 14 1/2 (there is a stoplight). Turn right to travel west. Go about 1/4 of a mile to Historic Parkway and turn right onto a dirt road. Follow the road straight back past the buildings. We will have the gate open down to the range.

Parking is tight so make sure to leave yourself enough time for driving as well as finding parking. Remember that only those registered on the SignUpGenius may be on site. Masks are required when out of the car. Members can remove masks when on the shooting line.

Thank you all for your flexibility and understanding this year!

State Competition Results in October

Our Larimer County state shoots are being held over the next few weeks. Our targets and scorecards will then be compiled and sent to Colorado 4-H Shooting Sports.

Counties have until the end of September to complete their county’s state shoots. State competition results will be finalized after that and are not promised until the end of October.

We will post the standings and alert everyone as soon as they are available.

State Shoot Registration

We’re nearing the last event for this year’s shooting sports competitions. Thank you everyone for your participation and help with this year's practices and events. It’s been a bit different and if nothing else, we now have a system for handling unexpected events!

Here are a few discipline-specific notes for State Shoots:

  • Shotgun: Skeet will be Tuesday, August 18 and Trap will be Tuesday, August 25.

  • Archery: Will be at The Ranch in the same location as practices.

  • Air Rifle/Air Pistol: Starting a bit later than county shoot

  • Muzzleloading: Start time has been moved back to 2:30 p.m.

  • .22 Pistol: Will be held during the day on Saturday, September 5.

  • .22 Rifle: Each relay is dedicated to a specific class.

We need both phone numbers AND email addresses for each person over 17-years-old who will be attending the state shoots. This includes members, adults, and guests. Please be sure to include them on your registration on SignUpGenius.

Since this is a postal match and counties have until the end of September to submit their targets and scorecards to the state office, results are not promised until the end of October. We will let everyone know as soon as results are posted.

If you have any discipline-specific questions please talk to your superintendent or check lc4hss.org.  Please sign up as soon as possible so we can get the scoring system set-up and be ready for the upcoming shoots.
