Description

For many CSSA members, their introduction to the shooting sports was through Scouts Canada, so when Mike Melnichuk, an alumni of the Camp Samac Scout Centre, reached out to us for help, we answered the call without hesitation.

The problem? The air rifles Camp Samac used for teaching young people the firearms community’s culture of safety and the benefits of the discipline of marksmanship were in woefully in disrepair. They needed to be replaced.

We reached out to our friends at Stoeger Canada and explained the problem. They gave us a fantastic discount on a dozen new air rifles, the Stoeger Model S3000-C, which Executive Director Tony Bernardo delivered to Camp Samac on Saturday, May 25th.

As you can see in the attached image, the children were ecstatic, as were the Scouts Canada representatives on hand to receive the donation.
