SCHEELS To Sponsor Scholastic Clay Target Program

Written by SSSF Staff on January 31, 2018.

The Scholastic Shooting Sports Foundation is pleased to announce that SCHEELS has committed to a 3 year sponsorship at the “Red Diamond” level in support of the Scholastic Clay Target Program! SCHEELS is an employee-owned, privately held business that owes its consistent success to its empowered associates, leaders and partners who think and make decisions for their individual stores and the entire company. Today, SCHEELS is a 26-store operation with stores in 11 states including North Dakota, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, South Dakota, Montana, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Nevada, Utah, and Kansas. Providing SCHEELS' customers with first-class customer service and the world's largest selection of sports, sportswear and footwear are the priorities throughout the organization. "SCHEELS is honored to be a proud supporter of the SCTP as they continue to grow and develop the sport of competitive shooting at the scholastic level.” Said Marcus Thornton, VP of Marketing. “We are excited to help play a role in the mission of the SCTP and to aid in the further development of our youth through the excitement around shooting sports." “This 3 year commitment will mark the first ever sponsorship at this level from a large sporting goods retailer for the SCTP and we are most grateful to them” commented Tom Wondrash, SCTP National Director. “SCHEELS has reset the bar in support of the youth shooting sports and youth development and we look forward to working with them for years to come!” The SCTP is excited to be working with SCHEELS and especially their individual local retail locations. The opportunity to start new teams in some areas as well as grow teams in areas where we have a team/store overlap will prove to be a win-win scenario for some time!
