A fundraising event to further

traditions on our public lands.

 

Trash No Land is a Washington based 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to making a positive difference in recreational target shooting toward the critical goal of protecting and preserving our heritage on public lands.

Our heritage is not simply preserving places to shoot on public lands.  It’s much bigger than that.  It falls within the realm of preserving our natural resources and the conservation of Wildlife habitat by minimizing our impact.

Trash No Land is concerned for the future of our great outdoors and the heritage we pass down to future generations.  Therefore, we volunteer to do our best in promoting responsible target shooting in the present, and Paying It Forward to the future.

 

Please join us Saturday, June 20th, 2026, from 1-4 PM, for a fundraising event benefiting Trash No Land’s efforts to preserve, improve and further public land recreational target shooting.
