Big Brothers and Big Sisters of North Texas 2nd Annual Clay Shoot
Pat Johnson and a young neighbor attended this fun event at Elm Fork Shooting
Park in Dallas. This day in the outdoors was for adults and children of
all skill levels who enjoy the fast pace of shooting sporting clays. Proceeds
went to the Big Brothers and Big Sisters Outdoor Mentoring Programs, and
will match more than 100 children in North Texas with safe, caring adult
mentors for an entire year! These programs partner adults with a passion
for the outdoors with children who may not otherwise have the opportunity
to spend time in this natural setting. Whether fishing, camping or hiking,
these adventures open up doors of opportunity to children that previously
went unrealized. www.bbbs.org
