The National Youth Leadership Conference took place at Camp Perry the weekend of 8-11 October 2004. Many shooting sports leaders came to learn and exchange valuable information. One of the activities at the Youth Leadership Conference that attendees could participate in was the National Youth Leadership Garand Match.

And the match was quite a learning experience for most attendees. Pulling pits became a reality and shooting a Garand was a thrilling experience! The wind was a bit challenging but everyone had a great time.
