SHOT SHOW – -(ShootingWire.com)- NSSF, NRA and the Boy Scouts of America will be holding a meeting at the SHOT Show to inform manufacturers about what’s in store during the BSA’s 100th Anniversary and how manufacturers can support the efforts being made to introduce more youths to the shooting sports.
Topics include the 2010 BSA Jamboree, council shooting sports changes, high adventure base advanced shooting sports programs and new shooting programs geared towards retaining youth in the shooting sports.
