The Pleasant Valley Trap Team is currently seeking sponsorships for our 2015 season. We have several levels of sponsorships with various levels of recognition. Money raised will help offset the cost of participation to our students by helping purchase equipment and cover entry fees. We will not turn away any student for financial reasons. With the success of our first season with 45 students, we expect the number of participants, both male and female, to continue to grow. We are fortunate to have 13 certified volunteer coaches, support of the Pleasant Valley School District and a large support organization to manage the team. Our trap team is open to students of all abilities, male or female, in grades 7th - 12th grade. The season runs from March through June. For more information about our team and to download the sponsorship form, visit www.pvtrapteam.org . For immediate information about sponsorship, contact Head Coach Damien Dassie at 563-529-6774 or Chris Cournoyer at 563-505-6703.
