Happy New Year from the Atlantic Provinces.
To gun club managers in the Atlantic Provinces: It’s time to start thinking about your club’s 2024 ATA shoot schedule. Registered shoot applications are available on www.shootata.com and completed applications should be forwarded for approval to Janaya Nickerson - the Atlantic Provinces Secretary. Janaya’s contact info is available on www.shootatlantic.com. Reach out to us if you need any help with the process.
You should have also received a limited number of complimentary ATA memberships for first time members. If your club hasn’t received yours, contact the ATA office or send me a note and I will inquire for you.

AP shooter Barry Turner attended the Autumn Satellite Grand American at the Tucson Trap and Skeet Club in early November. Barry reports that this year’s shoot was a lot of fun with great weather and nice targets. The shoot also marks Barry’s graduation to competing as an ATA Senior Veteran. Barry first shot in Tucson Trap and Skeet Club some 42 years ago and reports that he has seen the club evolve from a small volunteer led operation into a very sophisticated, professionally run enterprise. Barry also considers the club a premiere shooting facility in North America and highly recommends their shoots. For Barry’s full shoot report check out the Atlantic Province’s APTA Abroad section on our webpage.
