Jeremiah Beaver of Whitetails Unlimited presented a $1000.00 check to Bob Harden, WVATA Delegate, as a donation to the James A Schad Memorial Fund which will benefit the WV Aim Youth shooting program. This is the third consecutive year Whitetails Unlimited have generously supported youth shooting in WV.The food service was top notch the entire weekend with breakfast and lunch being available. Shooters enjoyed a free meal Saturday with choice of entrees, sides, dessert and beverages. Thanks for a job well done to Shawn & Charity Carroll, Chris & Denise Scamehorn and Ron & Cindy Stollar. The members of Marshall County have single-handedly taken on the WV Hall of Fame shoot for at least the last 14 years. Twice during those years, catastrophic flooding occurred prior to the shoot and they pulled it off. You would have never known there was a flood. Our thanks to Larry Lilley, Kenny Lilley, Bill King Jr., Jim French, Kathy Snyder, Mary Gump, Buck Mattone and Dan Morris of Marshall County Hunting & Fishing who have tirelessly worked to make the WV Hall of Fame shoot a success. Without their support, we would not be able to have this event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
