The Bluffdale Lions Club will be hosting a turkey shoot on Saturday, May 7. The shoot will start at 10 a.m. and go till dusk. It will be held at approximately 16700 South Camp Williams Road. There will be signs leading to and designating the location of the shoot.
During the event, there will be a raffle with prizes given away every hour. Most of the prizes will have an outdoor theme to them. The prizes range from outdoor chairs to a grill and the grand prize will be a shotgun. Each raffle ticket will be $1.
"Sometimes people think we actually shoot turkeys, but the turkey is really just the prize," Brad Peterson, Bluffdale Lion's Club president, said. The contestants will actually be shooting clay pigeons.
Each round will cost $5 and the contestants will be shooting against four other people. The winner of each round will get to choose either a turkey or a ham to take home.
There will be vendors with food as well as free hot chocolate for those who are interested.
"All ages are welcome and we will be there come rain or shine, so hopefully it won't be too wet," Peterson said.
