ENGC Wins the NRA's 2006 Outstanding Club Award
Fairfax, VA - The Eastern Nebraska
Gun Club was the recipient of the NRA's 2006 Outstanding Club
Award during the National Rifle Association's National Awards
Program in Arlington, VA.
The Omaha, Nebraska club was
presented the honor during a special ceremony at which NRA
President John C. Sigler presided. The NRA National Awards
Program is offered as a part of NRA's fall Board of Directors
meeting. The Outstanding Club Award is presented annually to an
NRA-affiliated club with a highly distinguished record of
service and organization. The club selected to receive this
award must epitomize the ideals to which all
NRA-affiliated clubs should strive.
The Eastern Nebraska Gun Club
provides a wide variety of options for shooters, including: a
600 yard rifle range with covered shooting stations, 200 and 300
yard firing points for high powered rifle matches, silhouette
facilities at various distances, a 100-yard multi-purpose range,
a trap field, a 50-yard range, and six pistol ranges.
The club actively keeps youths and
other shooters involved by hosting a youth shooting program,
several types of shooting matches, a hunter education course,
and multiple hunter sight-in days before deer season. Founded in
1963 as a private club, members, owns its own land, hosts
national matches, and is still 100 percent run by
dedicated volunteers.
The National Awards Program
recognizes outstanding service of those who support the NRA in
areas such as legislative affairs, club operation, youth
programs, and fund-raising. "The people we recognize through
these awards have distinguished themselves through their
dedication to the NRA and their fellow gun owners," said NRA
President Sigler. "We take great pride in honoring them for
their leadership in advancing the shooting sports and their
untiring activism on behalf of our Second Amendment rights."
