The Turkey Shoot pays for Christmas

No, we don't shoot turkeys. From October 14 through December 26, anyone of any age can try their aim at a paper target for $5 a shot. Little ones shoot with an adult's help. Bring your own shotgun and we supply the shells, or use one of the house guns. Closest to the bull's-eye wins meat prizes: steaks, roasts, hams and turkeys. No experience needed; friendly folks are on hand to help.

It's the Lodge's biggest fundraiser. Every dollar of the season goes to Angel Tree big-item gifts, Christmas for our Mooseheart kids, and local families who need a hand.
