Just a few days ago, your NRA announced a partnership with Old Glory Bank, a collaboration rooted in shared values and a mutual commitment to ensuring that America’s freedom-loving businesses and organizations have access to reliable, comprehensive financial services. Now, the MidwayUSA Foundation is confirming that Old Glory Bank will serve as the presenting sponsor for the 2025 National Youth Shooting Sports Conference (NYSSC). The NYSSC provides workshops and discussions on fundraising best practices, compliance, coach training, and range development projects.
What's unique about Old Glory Bank is that it has been on the right side of banking in the face of "debanking" efforts in the last years, fighting for your privacy, security, and liberty. Old Glory Bank is the pro-America bank patriots can trust, and MidwayUSA Foundation is nothing if not pro-American and patriotic. The financial assistance from Old Glory Bank as the presenting sponsor allows this long-standing conference to continue to be the nation’s premier educational and networking event for the youth shooting community.
In fact, NYSSC is the only conference in the country solely focused on youth shooting sports. This year’s conference is October 2-4, in Columbia, Missouri. This new partnership ensures the Foundation can deliver a high-quality, impactful conference experience, providing industry leaders with the resources necessary to sustain and grow youth shooting sports across America.
“We are strong supporters of our military, veterans, and first responders, many of whom benefited from participation in youth shooting sports,” said Eric Ohlhausen, Chief Strategy Officer at Old Glory Bank. “Partnering with MidwayUSA Foundation allows us to make a direct impact on thousands of young athletes who are learning the values of safety, respect, and personal responsibility through shooting sports.”
“Sponsor support allows us to keep costs down, while offering a robust line-up of speakers and range events,” said MidwayUSA Foundation Project and Events Manager Sarah Hall. She added, “We’re excited to offer our conference attendees the opportunity to pull some triggers at the newly established Missouri Marksmanship Education Center (MMEC) and the Prairie Grove Shooting Sports Complex. In our industry, it’s nice to get out of the conference center and on the range.”
