in our sights: gunning for a cure 2018
Emily Degan
Well, it’s that time of year again in New Orleans. Carnival is over, and it’s not quite Jazz Fest season yet, so we’re of course referring to Gunning for a Cure 2018.
Gunning for a Cure is a one-day sporting clays tournament and after-party supporting Dr. Sartor's cutting-edge prostate cancer research at the Tulane Cancer Center. And it’s this Saturday, February 24th!
Team Saint Hugh at Gunning for a Cure 2017
In addition to the actual tournament, the afternoon features a ton of fun activities at picturesque Stella Plantation, including: a “chicken drop” for a Rolex watch (the return of a fan favorite from last year), luncheon provided by 12 Seasons Catering, open bar, live music, wine wall, 3-gun raffle, long shot competition, silent auction, and other games for quality prizes. Luncheon/after-party tickets can be purchased in advance or at the door.
For the second year in a row, Saint Hugh is proud to sponsor a women’s shooting team. Last year, we sponsored the event’s first ever all female team and are proud to build on that tradition this year. Plus, keep an eye out for some our some of our best-sellers at the silent auction table!
It’s not too late to sign up a team! But if you can’t make it this weekend, you can stay involved by purchasing a 3-gun raffle ticket or simply making a donation.
Happy shooting!
