The 14th Annual Labor/United Way Trap Shoot and BBQ will take place Friday, April 22.

The annual trap shoot – sponsored by the St. Louis Labor Council, St. Louis Building and Construction Trades Council, Greater Madison County Federation of Labor, Southwestern Illinois Central Labor Council and Southwestern Illinois Building and Construction Trades Council – is the major fundraising event for the annual Labor/United Way Campaign.

United Way invests more than $1 million each week in our communities by funding 170 agencies that help people in the bi-state area.

EVENT DETAILS
The Trap Shoot will take place from 8 a.m. to noon at Winchester Trap & Skeet Facility, 600 Powder Mill Road, East Alton, Ill. 62024

The barbecue will be held after the shoot at Machinists Lodge 660, 161 N. Shamrock Road, East Alton, IL 62024.

The $70 entry fee includes two rounds of trap, plus the barbecue. A long shot side game will be offered again this year for an additional cost collected at the shoot.

The gun club provides shotguns and ammo; however, you can bring your own shotgun.
