2025 Vacant Chair Memorial Skirmish – Hosted by 8th WI & 2nd WI

The Labor Day weekend once again played host to the Rhinelander Vacant Chair Memorial Skirmish over the cool, yet sunny weekend.  Four units attended, resulting in a small but fun and unique shooting atmosphere.  Many individual shooters competed along with mini mortar golf to compliment the traditional team shooting events. Skirmishers enjoyed a variety of bottle targeting combined with different arrangements of clay pigeons.  Shooting was followed up with a complimentary chicken dinner with potluck side dishes and plenty of campfire discussions until “o dark thirty”.  Results for the team shooting was as follows:
