Shooters who hit a clay target will be entered into a sweepstakes to win a two-day South Dakota pheasant hunt with legendary Minnesota outdoorsman and TV personality Ron Schara. Shooters can also win some Black Cloud and Prairie Storm™ ammunition and Champion pink shooting gear. Tom Knapp and local politicians and professional athletes are expected to be on hand.
