Field Sports

Seven Ranges has a complete Field Sports Department that offers opportunities for archery, fishing, rifle shooting, and shotgun shooting. All firearms use is done under the supervision of a qualified instructor whose primary role is to impart the Scouts with a sense of safety and the rewards of a life-long pursuit of the recreational benefits of field sports. Introducing Scouts to the proper techniques of handling rifles, shotguns, and bows lends us a great opportunity to help avert some of the firearm accidents that occur in our country each year.

In an effort to maintain the safety of the range and camp, no firearms or ammunition are to be brought to camp by youth or adults. The Field Sports Department will provide the necessary firearms to adequately operate the range. All live rounds of any type must be kept and stored at the Field Sports Department.
