We have a short week in the USA Shooting office this week due to the Thanksgiving holiday, but before we head out to devour some turkey and stuffing, we want to leave you with some more wisdom from the batcave.
Holidays are known for creating lasting memories. Good food, good people and good times are sought after every year. But how do we make these memories last? With pictures!
Yes! Mom and Dad are not just running around with a camera to drive you crazy. There is a method to their madness, and their goal is to offer you a memory that will last for years to come.
Well, Batman and Robin would like to join the fun. We are asking coaches, shooters and match directors to take some snap shots at their Junior Olympic qualifiers this year and send us the pictures. We will post them on our blog for our members to follow this season’s excitement.
So send us your pictures from around the range and help us create some lasting memories of this year’s Junior Olympic season! All pictures can be emailed to Nicole Levine at nicole.levine@usashooting.org.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Week 2: Fallin' forward
Idea of the Week: Fall Pickup
With the change of seasons, Fall not only provides beautiful scenery but a great way for earning some extra cash. So try to spread the word throughout your neighborhood, roll up your sleeves and earn some dough through some old fashioned hard work.
1) Rake leaves! Leaves are falling like crazy right now, and many people simply do not have the time to pick them up. So grab a rake and some trash bags and head outside.
2) Mow Lawns. Since you just picked up all of the leaves, it is a perfect time to finish the job and mow the lawn.
3) Take out the trash. This is a simple chore really, but nobody likes to do it. While you are dumping your leaves and trimmings, offer to take out the trash cans for people weekly.
4) Shovel driveways. For those of you in snow country, there may not be too many leaves, but there is plenty of work shoveling snow from people’s driveways.
5) Wash cars. Everybody loves a clean car but might not have the time to go to the local carwash or to do it themselves. Try offering your services instead.
These are just a few ideas to get you started. Maybe you can make some flyers to help spread the word. Please always ask your parents for permission first and be safe while working. Good luck!
