Range and Target Activities Training

The purpose of range & target activities in Scouting is to teach firearm safety while introducing youth to a variety of fun, interactive program experiences. Scouting’s range & target activities are developed and implemented through age-appropriate training and experiences. 

If you are unable to attend in person, please attend virtually.  You will not be considered trained until you schedule a time with the instructor to finish the in-person section. The link will be sent out closer to the start of class. 

Scouting America adheres to its longstanding policy of teaching its youth and adult members the safe, responsible, and intelligent handling, care, and use of firearms, archery, and hand-held throwing sports in planned, carefully managed, and supervised programs for each youth who chooses to participate. 

Cub Scout Range and Target Activities are available at District and Council Events ONLY! The Age Appropriate Guidelines for Scouting Activities should be used to determine appropriate range and target activities for Cub Scouts.
