Pass It On – Outdoor Mentors announced today that TriStar Sporting Arms will be a sponsor of the 2014 Gun-a-Week Drawing. The drawing will feature a variety of TriStar’s exceptional quality shotguns, all with their impressive 5 year warranty. All of the funds raised from the Gun-a-Week Drawing are used by Pass It On – Outdoor Mentors in their work with state fish and wildlife agencies, conservation groups and youth organizations to reach out to underserved youth, giving them the chance to experience the great outdoors.
“Thanks to the generosity of TriStar Sporting Arms, Pass It On – Outdoor Mentors will be net a greater percentage on the funds raised with our Gun-a-Week Drawing, which will enable us to get more kids in the great outdoors,” stated Mike Christensen, President of Pass It On – Outdoor Mentors, Inc. Pass It On – Outdoor Mentors has held shooting clinics and hunter safety classes, provided used fishing rods/reels to both mentors and children, organized hunting and fishing excursions, hiking and canoeing adventures, all as part of an ongoing effort to give children the chance to get outdoors.
“TriStar is proud to partner with Pass It – On Outdoor Mentors. Focusing on the youth of today provides for the future of tomorrow. TriStar has always been passionate about getting kids engaged and excited about the outdoors and Pass It On – Outdoor Mentors provides exactly that avenue. We couldn’t be more excited to team up.” Gus Bader, President of TriStar Sporting Arms.
Pass It On – Outdoor Mentors has partnered with state fish and wildlife agencies, conservation organizations and youth organizations to give at-risk children outdoor opportunities they would not have had otherwise. “Too many children today never get the chance to experience the great outdoors we all know and love. When you hear a youngster say they’ve never seen a cow or been on a dirt road, you know we have to step up our efforts to get these children outdoors,” stated Christensen.
