Registration Open for LEA/CMP Junior Rifle Skills Camp
February 4, 2026
The Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP), in partnership with Lake Erie Arms (LEA), is excited to announce the upcoming LEA/CMP Junior Rifle Camp – a hands-on, six-week program designed to introduce and develop safe, confident junior marksmen!
Running on Saturday mornings from Feb. 14 through April 4 at Lake Erie Arms, this camp (open to ages 10–17) offers young athletes the opportunity to learn firearm safety and practical marksmanship in a fun, supportive and structured environment. Whether participants are brand new to the sport or looking to sharpen existing skills, the program meets juniors where they are and helps them grow.
The camp follows a modified CMP Rimfire Sporter Rifle course of fire, with expert instruction on the 25-yard range from three fundamental positions: prone, sitting and standing. The camp emphasizes safety, discipline, focus and sportsmanship, all while building a strong foundation for long-term success in competition.
Enrollment is limited to just eight students, allowing individualized coaching and hands-on guidance.
In addition to skill development, the LEA/CMP Junior Rifle Camp prepares participants for local CMP Rimfire Sporter Rifle matches and future competitions, including the prestigious CMP National Matches at Camp Perry, Ohio!
