Talladega Marksmanship Park Features Several Shotgun, Other Events in May
TALLADEGA, Ala. – The Civilian Marksmanship Program’s (CMP) Talladega Marksmanship Park is open and ready for the public, as several annual and monthly events resurface for fun on the range in May. Exciting news for shotgun enthusiasts, the National Sporting Clays Association (NSCA) matches are returning to the Talladega calendar, beginning May 28.

Shotgunners will have another competitive opportunity that also supports a meaningful cause during the “Shooters for Hooters” benefit – Saturday, May 8, on Talladega’s Sporting Clay Field. The event features teams of four, all competing at 15 different stands. Proceeds go toward the Never Surrender: A Breast Cancer Support Organization – a not-for-profit group dedicated to the education, prevention and support services for Breast Cancer patients, family and community members. Cash prizes are awarded to the top three places as well as for the “worst shooter” in the match, with more games and prizes available throughout. Another four-man shotgun match taking place in May is the Garrison Steel Fabricators Steel Dog Sporting Clay Shoot, held in conjunction with CraneWorks, for the general contractor community.
