Fwiw, I’m old, old, now but when I was in HS we had/maintained/fired M1 Garand rifles at our private school & the school had a rifle team that actively competed with other schools.
(The public schools in our district also closed the schools for the first days of deer/duck season, too.)

A BETTER/more intelligent time, IMO.

I wonder what effect that had on getting opening days moved to Saturdays.

Eh... It was better in many ways, yet much worse in others. We had some of the administrators who were around back then, but who were finishing out their careers when I went to school in the 80s and 90s. They weren’t great.
