Yay!

It appears things were set in motion back in March of 2023 for a “private entity” to buy the World Recreation and Shooting Complex from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.

 

It will most likely be the Amateur Trapshooting Association.

 

If the ATA deal falls through, who’s up for a BE group buy?

Yep!

 

I hear you!

 

Hence why I put the 😜  emoticon in there.

 

word on da streetz, is that the contract with the ATA is up in 2026.

 

There are some rumors that the ATA might move the Grand back to Ohio.  This time to a place called Cardinal Center.

 

If so, that would absolutely be the final nail in the Shooting Complex’s coffin.

Ohhh…about 11 years ago, I was the volunteer USPSA and Steel Challenge match director out there on the pistol berms:

Let’s just say there were some shenanigans, and I was replaced by a husband/wife team who where state contract employees.
