Bethany’s home for Clay Target competitions and live practice is the Caribou Club in Le Sueur. Caribou has a skeet facility, numerous sporting clay stations, and six trap stations. A team storage area for shells and other equipment along with a Viking branded trap station will make for a welcoming home range for the Vikings.
