The Scholastic Shooting Sports Foundation (SSSF) is pleased to announce the election of Tom Yost to its board of directors. Yost has been a long-time supporter of the SSSF and its programs and had been highly involved at the grassroots level in the Scholastic Action Shooting Program (SASP) since starting with Scholastic Steel Challenge and the Scholastic Pistol Program. Yost has been involved in the shooting sports for over 45 years as a competitor, instructor, consultant, FFL holder and mentor. Yost holds several competitive pistol shooting titles including National Championships in the International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA) and has been highly involved as Northeast Area Coordinator and Safety Officer Instructor with IDPA. Most recently Yost starred in the SSSF’s instructional video production of the Scholastic Action Shooting Program. “The shooting sports were the All American sport way before baseball was invented” said Yost. “Being involved with the SSSF is a venue to pass on my passion for the shooting sports to the next generation. I feel my appointment to the BOD will bring practical range experience and my industry contacts to our team.” "Tom has been a very strong supporter of our SSSF programs since the SPP became part of our curriculum in 2012 and, as such, he is a welcome addition to the Foundation Board" said Louise Terry, Chair of the SSSF Board of Directors. "His assistance, especially with our SASP launch this year will be very important." Yost’s appointment fills the board seat vacated by Denis Karnosky on the eleven member board.
