Wheelin' Sportsman Event Aug. 13 Hey, gang. This info arrived too late to use on Outdoor Wisconsin or Outdoors with Dan & Judy, but there's time for a quick blog post about it, so read on... The New Berlin Gobblin' Longbeards chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation and Lakeview Rod & Gun Club are hosting a Wheelin' Sportsmen event, sponsored by Sportsmen's Warehouse of New Berlin, Aug. 13, 11:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m. at the Lakeview Rod & Gun Club on Big Muskego Lake. This event for people with disabilities will offer trap shooting, fishing and boating, along with a picnic, music and games. To get there, take I-43 south to Moorland Road, then head south on Moorland about four miles. Moorland becomes Durham Drive [^] just keep going and watch for the "Hunters Nest" sign on the right. Wheelin' Sportsmen NWTF is a national no-profit organization dedicated to providing opportunities for people with disabilities to enjoy the outdoors. The event pairs disabled participants with able-bodied volunteers for a day of adventure and a lifetime of friendship. Shotguns and ammo will be provided for trap shooting, if needed. To register, contact Jim Lutzen, 262-786-4793. If you know someone who would benefit from this outing, or if you'd like to volunteer to help out, give Jim a call. Later... 9:04:09 PM    comment []
