MD of Greenview raises $53K for local food banks during 2024 Charity Clay Shoot

The clay pigeons didn’t have a chance at the 2024 Greenview Charity Clay Shoot earlier this month as shooters from the corporate, government, and non-profit sectors flocked to Valleyview’s Shot Shell Sporting Clay Range to participate.

The event is an annual affair organized by the MD’s local government to directly support the five food banks operating in Greenview’s communities.

This year saw 126 participants representing a variety of entities who managed to raise nearly $53,000. Reeve of the MD of Greenview Tyler Olsen says the number reflects the continued support of his council and local sponsors and says he is excited to continue growing the event in the future.

“The increase in attendance at our seventh annual Clay Shoot underscores the unwavering support of our local businesses and sponsors,” he says. “We are thrilled to see this event continue to grow and are very pleased with this year’s achievements.”

The next Clay Shoot has yet to be officially scheduled; however, the MD says they look forward to hosting the event “for years to come.”
