Ron Carr Memorial
Shooting Sports - Pistol
In fond memory of former Grand Rapids Rifle & Pistol Club President Ron Carr (3/22/1956 - 10/25/2021) who left the club far better than he found it. His contribution to the club, junior shooting sports, and the State Games has been immense and will be everlasting. Those that competed with or against him will never forget his ever-present smile, no matter the result. Ron's passion for precision shooting challenged us all to pursue that ever elusive perfect shot, even in the face of adversity.
Update as of 2/11/25: A 9:00 PM line has been added on Saturday - register now to claim your spot!
