BAMA 8th Annual Turkey Shoot
November 19, 2022 @ 8:30 am - 1:30 pm
FreeEnjoy great food, tests of skill, good old-fashioned competition and possibly take home your Thanksgiving dinner at the Fifth Annal BAMA Turkey Shoot! Visit Toney Creek Plantation for target shooting at its best. The plantation is located off Hwy. 247 at 155 Toney Creek Road, Belton. It sits on acreage owned by the same family for 200 years!
Registration begins on Saturday, November 19 at 8:30 AM at the scenic upland hunting preserve. The last shoot will be around 1 pm. Hosted by the Belton Area Museum Association, the event is free to attend, thanks to the presenting sponsor Sportsman’s Warehouse. “Young and old are invited to participate in this old-fashioned event,” said Abigail Burden, BAMA Executive Director.
Participants can purchase turkey targets for $5 to $10 and engage in over 10 contests to win great prizes. Entrants will use shotguns to see who can hit a pellet closest to the center of the target. Ammo and guns will be provided or you may bring your own gun. There is no limit to the number of targets participants can purchase.
In the children’s division, those from 8 – 12 years of age can purchase a turkey target too. The targets will be set up at a shorter distance.
“Even if you don’t want to participate in the turkey shoot, there are still lots of fun things to do at the event, including games and crafts for kids and food, of course,” stated Burden.
