three daughters during the 70's and most recently with his grandson during the
90's. In 1981, he helped to get the Youth League started at the Central

first places and five second places at the Grand.
Denny enjoys sharing his sportsmanship and techniques of trapshooting with the
kids just as he has enjoyed learning from all the friends and acquaintances he
has met during the past 29 summers.
