North Dakota Ag Connection - 10/26/2020
Ramsey County teams took first place in all three divisions of the 2020 4-H State Air Rifle Championships, which were held in Devils Lake.
The championships were modified to allow shooters to participate at their home range under instructor supervision and send their scores to the host site because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

participants.

score of 600. Senior-age division participants competed to qualify for the 2021 4-H National Invitational Match in Grand Island, Neb.
