Did you know the North Peace Rod & Gun Club has been part of our community since 1945?

If you're visiting the Fort St. John Museum, be sure to stop by our display and learn more about the club, our history, and the many opportunities available to get involved.

Programs featured include:

• Kids Intro to Marksmanship
• Ladies Intro to Trap
• Project Mapleseed
• Youth Shooting Sports
• Club Memberships

You'll also find QR codes to learn more and register for upcoming programs.

We've included examples of clay targets, shotgun shells, and various cartridge sizes to provide a hands-on learning experience and help visitors better understand the many disciplines within the shooting sports.

Did you know?

Shooting sports have been part of the Olympic Games since 1896, making them one of the oldest Olympic sports in the world.

Participants develop focus, discipline, patience, responsibility, and confidence, skills that extend far beyond the range.

Whether you're interested in the club's history, curious about the sport, or looking for a new activity to try, we invite you to stop by and take a look.

Thank you to the Fort St. John Museum for helping us share a small piece of the North Peace Rod & Gun Club story.

A big thank you to the Bulkley Valley Rod & Gun Club, in Smithers, for hosting another great PITA shoot this past weekend.

It was a fantastic event with excellent competition, great hospitality, and an opportunity to catch up with shooters from across the province.

The North Peace Rod & Gun Club was proud to have 11 shooters make the trip from the Fort St. John area to attend. It's always great to see our shooters representing the Northeast and supporting clubs throughout the region.

Weekends like these are about more than scores.

They are about friendships, sportsmanship, sharing knowledge, and helping keep trapshooting strong in our communities.

Thank you to all of the volunteers, organizers, sponsors, and shooters who helped make the weekend a success.

We appreciate all the hard work that goes into hosting events like this and look forward to seeing everyone again down the road.

Some people leave fingerprints on a club.

Others leave foundations.

This past weekend, the North Peace Rod & Gun Club was honoured to present the Mike Nielsen Commemorative High Overall Buckle, generously sponsored by Vicki Nielsen & family.

For many in our shooting community, Mike Nielsen was far more than just a shooter.

He was someone who showed up.

Someone who gave his time.

Someone who encouraged new shooters, helped keep trapshooting alive in our region, and quietly made an impact on countless people over the years through mentorship, friendship, dedication, and community.

People like Mike are the reason clubs like ours continue to exist generations later.

His impact reached far beyond scores and competition. It lives in the people he taught, the friendships he built, the stories shared around the clubhouse, and the passion for the sport that continues today because of people like him.

To help honour that legacy, we have also created a photo mosaic made up of hundreds of small trapshooting moments, memories, and photographs.

A reflection of the community, friendships, dedication, and years that helped shape both the sport and the club so many people know today.

Seeing the Mike Nielsen Commemorative HOA Buckle presented this weekend was incredibly meaningful for many in attendance, and we would like to sincerely thank Vicki Nielsen & family for making it possible.

Moments like this are an important reminder that clubs are built by people.
By volunteers.
By mentors.
By those willing to give their time, knowledge, and heart to something bigger than themselves.

And Mike Nielsen was absolutely one of those people.

From shooters, volunteers, scorekeepers, kitchen helpers, trap helpers, sponsors, organizers, and everyone behind the scenes, events like this simply do not happen without an incredible group of people working together.
