Range Development Endowment (FR16460)
As coaches are critical to youth shooting sports, so too is a place to shoot. The Range Development Endowment is meant to help fill that need by encouraging existing ranges to allow for more youth-oriented shooting activities through improvements or expansions. Grants from the Range Development Endowment shall be limited to one per recipient annually. Grants are authorized to fund improvements or expansions of existing ranges that enhance and grow the number of youth participating in the shooting sports. Funds cannot be used to buy land or fund the costs of establishing a new range facility. This is not to say that funds cannot be used to create an addition to an already existing range. Grants must be limited to no more than 50% of the total cost of the expansion not to exceed $75,000.
Grants
This endowment is restricted and will award competitive grants, based upon criteria set by MidwayUSA Foundation.
