SOUTH SIDE TURKEY SHOOT -
(Shoot dates are the last Sunday in the month of September. See "Events" for exact date")
South Side's annual turkey shoot is held on the last Sunday of September - rain or shine. Shooters have a variety of events to choose from which include: archery, running deer, trap, 100 yd. bench rest, shotgun luck shoot, pistol, shotgun slug, and 40 yd. 22 cal. rifle. (If enough competitors are present, a black powder shoot at 40 yds. will be arranged.)
Eight to twelve individuals typically compete with each shoot. Winners are awarded a frozen turkey except for trap where game hens are the prize.
There is a fee per event. Festivities begin at noon until dusk. Food is available at the snack bar.
Firearm safety is strictly enforced. Spectators are welcome - make it a family day.
