What an incredible evening of competition, camaraderie, and community impact! United Way Lakes & Prairie was proud to host our 11th Annual Regional Trap Shooting Tournament, bringing together businesses, community members, and students from across our five-county region for a memorable event that supported local programs and services.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated, sponsored, volunteered, donated raffle items, and helped make this year's tournament such a tremendous success.
A Great Evening on the Range
The evening kicked off with registration and a safety briefing before teams took to the range for two rounds of trap shooting. Participants showcased impressive skill, sportsmanship, and plenty of friendly competition throughout the tournament.
With teams representing local businesses, organizations, and student groups, the event once again highlighted the strong community spirit that makes our region so special. Whether participants were seasoned shooters or first-time competitors, everyone enjoyed an exciting evening focused on fun and giving back.
More Than Just a Tournament
While the competition was certainly exciting, the true winner of the evening was our community.
Through registrations, sponsorships, raffle ticket sales, and other fundraising activities, participants helped support United Way's mission of improving lives and strengthening communities throughout our region. The funds raised will help support local programs and initiatives focused on education, health, and financial stability for individuals and families in need.
Congratulations to Our Winners
