MN Get Youth Outdoors Day offers an avenue into the outdoors

The 2025 Union Sportsmen’s Alliance (USA) Roofers Twin Cities Get Youth Outdoors Day drew its largest crowd yet as 190 participants — including 96 kids — gathered at Wild Marsh Sporting Clays on Sunday, Sept. 8.

Youths and their families enjoyed a day of hands-on outdoor activities such as a .22 rifle stand, archery, and a shotgun course featuring .410, 20-gauge, and 12-gauge shotguns.

Now in its 13th year, the free event is staffed by union volunteers trained in firearms safety and instruction. 

Get Youth Outdoors Day was part of a series of free, community-based youth outreach activities organized under Work Boots on the Ground—the USA’s flagship conservation program.
