Teulon Game and Fish Junior Rifle participants enjoyed the chance to learn about safety, sportsmanship and shooting for the first time since the pandemic.
Based out of Gunton Hall, the kids learned through lessons from the Manitoba Junior Rifle Hunters safety course. The experience is open to kids aged 10 and up who are part of Teulon Game and Fish.
“One of the biggest benefits the youth learn is gun safety. Being that we are a part of the Manitoba Junior Rifle Association, we are hoping that next year we are able to have our youth shooters participate in inter-club challenges as well as possibly going to provincial championships,” said Michelle Grenier, a hunter education instructor.
“As instructors, it was incredible to watch the kids grow in their confidence with learning gun safety and shooting. We had an amazing year of learning safety, sportsmanship and shooting.”
The session recently wrapped up, and organizers hope to start up again for a new season from December 2026 to April 2027.
