Hello everyone! I’m Makayla Scott. Here’s the story of how my field of dreams is being created.
I was 15 when I found out about the SCTP (Scholastic Clay Target Program) and what a wonderful program it is and all it offers to our youth. Right out of the gate, I was so excited to join the program! Soon after though, I learned West Virginia didn’t have an SCTP Team. I continued to a North Carolina team over 4 hours away. I was so thankful for this team, but I wanted to represent my home state.
For the past year, I have worked alongside my father planning to form a West Virginia SCTP Team. Pretty soon, we finally got some other coaches on board. Sadly, in the process, we lost our only practice field. This made the need for a range even more dire. After this news, it made the dream for a West Virginia Team seem impossible. But, at the Guinness World Record attempt, I met the people behind MEC Outdoors.
Soon, they decided to make me a sponsored shooter. Along with this amazing opportunity, MEC decided to furnish machines for the field!
After leasing the land from my grandmother on our family farm, we even got a local excavating company, Green Acres Excavating, to do the excavation work. This along with our friends and coaches is helping our dream become a reality!
