Range and Target Activities Resume

An update from Chief Seattle Council on the National RATA (Range and Target Activities) Stand-Down issued last week. We have received guidance on reopening all RATA Activities and have reviewed it with our entire Outdoor Adventures Staff. We are pleased to report that we have received approval from National and are able to reinstate our RATA programming.
 
Safety is of the upmost importance in Scouting, and we truly appreciate the commitment to youth each and every volunteer in Chief Seattle Council has. If you have any questions, please contact the council office.

Frequently asked questions:

Can cubs attend? No, this is Scout Troops, Sea Scout Ships, and Venturing Crews.

What firearms? Rifle, Shotgun, Muzzle Loading Rifles, and Archery.  Venturing Scouts can shoot pistols; however, these require the additional Hold Harmless Agreement

Can I bring my own firearm? No, all firearms are provided by the camp and shooting sports team for this event.

Can my scout earn a merit badge? The event isn’t designed for scouts to obtain merit badges but rather have a fun experience learning and using a variety of firearms. But a scout may choose to bring their own blue card and get parts of their badge signed off. However, they are responsible for this and it is unlikely that they will be able to complete it during this event.
