Lake Land College Clay Target team holds signing event for inaugural team members

Six Lake Land students officially became the inaugural members of the college’s new clay target team at a signing event on Friday, Sept. 1. The event was held at the Effingham Sportsman’s Club, where the team will compete this upcoming season.

The following students signed at the event and will form the 2023-2024 Lake Land Clay Target team:

The Lake Land Board of Trustees officially approved the new team during a regular meeting on August 14. Coaching the team is Civil Engineering Instructor and Program Coordinator Josh Fulk, Saint Elmo.

“It was great to finally have all the team in one room for the first time to make them officially part of the Lake Land College Clay Target Shooting Team,” Fulk said. “These students are very well-deserving to represent Lake Land in our first season from both a competitive and academic standpoint. I can’t wait to see what our first season will bring and what our team will grow into in future seasons.”

Now officially assembled, Fulk’s team looks forward to the start of the season. The team will compete every Friday at 7 p.m. from Sept. 22 to Oct. 27. Anyone interested in attending these events is welcome to do so for free, but the team will accept donations to help with costs throughout the season Donations can be made at https://www.lakelandcollege.edu/online-giving/.
