Charity comes in many forms, from many places. Charity, the important act of sellflessly helping others, most wonderfullly without expectation of praise or appreciation, is woven into our great country’s fabric. One solid example of charity comes every year from the Narragansett Gun Club. This year, the Narragansett Gun Club shoots for charity when they host their 7th Annual All Round Fall Charity Shoot on Sunday, October 20, 2024. Founded way back in 1907, club members enjoy each others company while they shoot for personal enjoyment and friendly competition. There are always charity events on the Club’s calendar, where shooting enthusiasts offer their personal time to help others. The 7th Annual All Round Fall Charity Shoot
is a fine example and they would love you to join them, for the day, or maybe as a member.

7th Annual All Round Fall Charity Shoot

       Here are the basics to cut and paste into your mobile device so you don’t miss your opportunity: 10:00am start, cash prizes for overall top score and in each venue, with some excellent support prizes and a 50/50 raffle. Try your skills at a 100 bird shoot with 25 rounds at trap, skeet, 5-stand and scatt. Limited space is available so now is the time to sign up, which you can do by calling 914-572-1463 or emailing Barbara Kent at bakent@aol.com before Sept.30, 2024. 

The Town of Exeter, Rhode Island is a long standing beneficiary of the club’s generosity. From Jessica DeMartino, Director of Social Services in Exeter,

 We have been fortunate to receive consistent support from the Narragansett Gun Club over the 
past several years. Their annual “Fall Charity Shoot,” scheduled for October 20, 2024, has played 
a crucial role in funding a wide range of our initiatives. Thanks to the generosity of donors like 
yourself, we have been able to provide school supplies, restock our diaper and baby pantry, 
support Thanksgiving and Christmas giving programs, and offer direct assistance to individuals 
and families facing critical challenges, such as homelessness and health crises.”

That’s the magic of charity.

Another magic is how lives can change in a moment. We may be doing alright these days but not everyone is and tides turn. The Narragansett Gun Club invites you to send a few rounds flying for a good cause and to help some families in need. The Narragansett Gun Club shoots for charity because that’s their way to contribute to people who just might need a hand.
What’s more, the Narragansett Gun Club will host their annual Pistol Charity Shoot the same day.
The deal is you get 100 rounds of the cailber of your choice, with four stages of difficulty. The shooter with the overall winning score has the choice of a Rosco rifle or pistol barrel prize. Pretty cool.
All this fun and charity costs just $65.00, ($75.00 if you wait ’til the day of…) which includes a chance to win a Samsung Galaxy Tablet. This is so win/win. Just to sweeten the deal, there will be a gourmet lunch.

Oh yes, the food…

The 7th Annual All Round Fall Charity Shoot is open to members and non-members alike and who knows, you just might want to find out about joining The Narragansett Gun Club while you’re there. The best way to help is to show up, chip in and go home happy you were there. 

Shooting, eating, raffling, winning…
