Major Mark, 28 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 2: thanks so much for joining us here on the Gun 29 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: Guy Show. 30 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 3: Oh, thank you so much for having me. It's pleasure 31 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 3: to be here. 32 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 2: Absolutely So the Hidden Falls Camp. First of all, tell 33 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 2: me about the camp, because at the end of the day, 34 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: this event is really about raising money to send at 35 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 2: risk kids to that particular camp, is it not. 36 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 3: That's correct. The Salvation Army has a long history of 37 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 3: bringing people to camp. Specifically, it started with inner city 38 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 3: families with the we're called fresh air camps because they 39 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,679 Speaker 3: a lot of families that were poor didn't have any 40 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 3: way to get out of even the city for the summer, 41 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 3: so it provided a respite. And it's been part of 42 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 3: our history now for a long long time. And the 43 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 3: camp down in Hidden Falls is a beautiful seven hundred 44 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: acre camp with trails and indoor swimming pool. We have 45 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 3: outdoor activities like a zip line, high ropes, low ropes, 46 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 3: you name it. We do it for kids and in 47 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 3: for families as well. 48 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 2: That's fantastic. Now, is this going to be all age 49 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 2: groups of kids or are we focused on particular age groups. 50 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 3: Well, for the overnight camping, it's focused on basically six 51 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 3: year olds and up through eighteen. But there are other 52 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 3: family camps where the entire family can come and other 53 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 3: activities throughout the year. 54 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 2: Well, tell me about Clays for a Cost coming up 55 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 2: on September eleventh, and you'll see my name on the roster. 56 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 2: I signed up my team this morning actually, and I'm 57 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 2: in it to win it. I'm a little competitive. I 58 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 2: come out there. I love shooting sporting plays. By the way, 59 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 2: it's one of the all time great shooting activities you 60 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 2: can possibly engage in. But tell me about the event, 61 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,839 Speaker 2: give the specifics and if people are interested, how could 62 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 2: they possibly sign up? 63 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 3: Sure? Well, the easiest way to sign up is Clays 64 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 3: for a Cause dot net And that's FLR, not a 65 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 3: number four. Clays for a Cause dot net And the 66 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 3: event really is like you said to help us raise 67 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 3: funds to our summer camp to help kids go to camp. 68 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 3: And the event itself will happen on September eleventh. Registration 69 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,839 Speaker 3: starts at twelve thirty. We aim to get guys and 70 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 3: the ladies back on the road by five thirty pm, 71 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 3: so it'll be a nice afternoon. You get to shoot 72 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 3: fifty round sporting clays up at the beautiful Indiana Gun 73 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 3: Club Sporting Clays Course, and it's two hundred and twenty 74 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: five dollars for an individual person or eight hundred dollars 75 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 3: for a team of four, so you get a little 76 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 3: discount there for that. And we will have a short program, 77 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 3: awards program, and one of the most exciting things really 78 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 3: for me is, you know, there's always things to purchase, 79 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 3: and there'll be some great packages there that you can 80 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 3: bid on in a silent auction type thing. But we 81 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 3: do things a little bit differently. We have donated Bonelli 82 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 3: I believe it's an M two shotgun Nelly and everyone, 83 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 3: every paid shooter gets one ticket into the drawing for 84 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 3: that gun just for showing up and supporting us. Of course, 85 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 3: that's really pretty good odds because last year we had 86 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 3: about forty eight shooters, so you can improve your odds 87 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 3: there by purchasing a few more tickets and making a 88 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:03,799 Speaker 3: donation for the Salva Army. So it's a fun event. 89 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 3: We have an MC by the name of mister Creek Stewart. 90 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 3: He's an outdoor wilderness survivalist right here from Indiana, lives 91 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 3: here in Indianapolis, and he has come out and actually 92 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 3: donated his time to teach at our Salvetion Army outdoor 93 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,799 Speaker 3: camp in overnight camp for kids where they sleep in tents, 94 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 3: chop their own wood, cook over a fire, all those 95 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 3: kinds of things. On the Oh, yeah, it is cool. 96 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 2: So when I talk to people about sporting play fundraisers 97 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 2: and I'm looking at the details on clays for a cause, 98 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 2: so we know there are answers to each of these things. 99 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 2: But I hear things like, gosh, I've never shot sporting 100 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: clays before. I don't really know what I'm doing. I'd 101 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 2: love to support this cause, but could I show up 102 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 2: and shoot an event like this and still enjoy it 103 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 2: even though I'm not an experienced shooter? 104 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 3: You know, guy, I heard you say your team is 105 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 3: a little on the competitive side. That's wonderful, but it's 106 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 3: also for the person who's never done it before. The 107 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 3: Indiana Gun Club included in your registration is not only 108 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 3: your shotgun shells for the day in all the rounds 109 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 3: for the play shoot, but also if you don't have 110 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 3: a gun, they'll include a loaner shotgun for you and 111 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 3: we'll you'll go with some experienced people. It's a great 112 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 3: time to come and learn. So there's we're open for 113 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 3: all levels competitive. There are some pretty cool trophies in 114 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 3: the shape of a walnut clay pigeon, so yeah, they're 115 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 3: pretty cool and so but you do not have to 116 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 3: know how to do this or even own your own 117 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 3: shotgun to come and support the Salvation Army and have 118 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 3: a lot of fun. 119 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 2: I'll say that is absolutely true. I've shotten a lot 120 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 2: of fundraisers at Indiana Gun Club in particular, and they 121 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 2: do such a nice job out there. There's some oversight, 122 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 2: there's a safety lesson at the beginning. The way this 123 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 2: stations are set up. You know, the thing I love 124 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 2: about sporting plays among so much I love about it, 125 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 2: but one thing I love is it's set up so 126 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,559 Speaker 2: well for beginners. Because you stand up on the station, 127 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: you don't load your shotgun until your barrel's over. They're 128 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 2: railing on this station that's set up out there. There 129 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 2: are posts on either side, so you can only swing 130 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 2: the shotgun so far in either direction. The bird goes up. 131 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 2: Either hit it or you don't. And you know, you 132 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 2: shoot your four shots per station or so and go 133 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 2: on to the next one. And you know, it's not 134 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 2: like golf where you got to chase the ball off 135 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 2: into the woods. It's not like tennis where you got to, 136 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 2: you know, chase the ball that you've just hit over 137 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 2: the fence. You know, you stand up, you shoot, you 138 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 2: hit the bird, you don't hit the bird. You have 139 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 2: a great time. You learn as you go, you get better. 140 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 2: If you've never done it before, you'll get better station 141 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 2: to station to station. And I love watching beginners walk 142 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 2: out of there with a great, big, huge smile on 143 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 2: their face. And here they could do that because they 144 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 2: had a great time shooting sporting plays, but also because 145 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 2: they had a great time raising money for at risk 146 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 2: kids right here in central Indiana. 147 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, can I just tell you a quick story about 148 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 3: our summer camp at that outdoor living camp. One of 149 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 3: the activities was clay shooting, and right there on camp. 150 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 3: We don't have a sporting clays thing, but we could 151 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 3: throw some clays and there were young boys and girls 152 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 3: who had never shot before, and some were afraid to 153 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 3: do it. And they get up there and you're helping 154 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 3: them with their stance and they take their first shot 155 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 3: and oftentimes they miss, of course, but you know that second, third, 156 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 3: or fourth time and they hit a clay, their chest 157 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 3: just pops out and they got a grin from ear 158 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 3: to ear because you know, I did that, I accomplished something. 159 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 3: So it's about self esteem as much as having a 160 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 3: lot of fun. 161 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 2: So beautiful time, Absolutely true. And listen the last question 162 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 2: before we reiterate how folks can get involved or get 163 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 2: signed up. But you know one thing about any form 164 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: of fundraiser, a lot of times people are worried. You know, 165 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 2: I'm not really sure where my money going. I'm not 166 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 2: sure if I'm going to spend money here in Indiana 167 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 2: and my money is going to be shipped off to 168 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 2: some other place in the country.
