Correction Notice for the JROTC Postals Press Release: We previously stated MidwayUSA provided the donations to the JROTC Championship instead of Mr. and Mrs. Larry Potterfield.

This year, Mr. and Mrs. Potterfield will donate over $400,000 through generous endowments offered through the MidwayUSA Foundation to winning teams and individuals. The MidwayUSA Foundation is a public charity that helps communities and organizations raise funds to support their youth shooting teams and activities. Thank you to the Potterfields for their generous donation.
