2020 Colorado State Shoot Update

Hey 4-H Members and Leaders, 

We have received information that the 2020 Colorado 4-H State Shooting Sports Championships have been canceled. Even though this event is canceled, please know the Colorado State 4-H Office, Colorado State 4-H Shooting Sports Advisory Committee, and State 4-H Shooting Sports Championships Superintendents will be working to identify possible alternate avenues to engage 4-H youth in State 4-H Shooting Sports contests this year. Please see the attached letter for more detailed information.

I know this is extremely disappointing for many of you and I am sorry that this highlight event will not be occurring this year! I know many of you look forward to this event and work very hard to qualify for it. As a whole, I recognize how the presence of COVID-19 in Colorado has severely impacted our communities this year and I know this has not been easy to deal with. I truly empathize with you all in missing our normal 4-H activities, practices, and, most of all, our 4-H friends. However, I know we will all come out of this together!

I do want to encourage you all to keep practicing! Please continue to learn about your disciplines and I hope that someday soon we will be able to resume our practices and other 4-H shooting sports events, even if in a modified format.
