Sheriff Julian Whittington will hold the Bossier Sheriff's Office Summer Shooting Sports Program 2026 and this sounds like something every Bossier Parish kid could get something out of.

It's a shooting program for boys and girls from 10 thru 15 years old and will start in June with a number of sessions.

Along with a heavy dose of gun safety, the program will include Target BB Gun Rifle, Archery, and a 20-gauge shotgun. A Louisiana Hunter's Education Certification class will also be given during this program.

Camps will last for two days from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm each day at the Bossier Sheriff's Office Shooting Sports Range in Plain Dealing. Students will be provided lunch by the Bossier Sheriff's Office. Space is limited for each session.

You can select from an extensive number dates for your youth to take the course including:

June 29-30
July 6-7
July 8-9
