Bulls Eye Shooting Sports – Needing Instructors

Washington County Bull’s Eye 4-H Club offers a series of sessions in the Spring and Fall at 4-H Camp Hervida. There are nine disciplines offered in Ohio that adults can become certified in to then be offered at the local level:

  • Archery
  • Hunting & Wildlife
  • Living History
  • Muzzleloader
  • Pistol
  • Reloading
  • Rifle
  • Shotgun
  • Western Heritage

Some of these disciplines are not offered in Washington County due the lack of certified volunteers to teach the sessions at Bull’s Eye club meetings.
