The Holyoke Revolver Club's Junior Rifle Program offers young shooters between the ages of 11 and 20 a safe and supervised place to shoot. The Junior Rifle Program meets from October to the end of May, Thursday night from 6-8 PM at the clubhouse. The Program also holds family friendly activities throughout the year.
