    Some big shoots will be hard pressed to find workers this summer. Minimum wage Illinois is $12 if you can find the workers. The Sparta area has teens making more than that at burger joints.

    True. Last year, volunteers were requested at the Grand.

    Somewhat related: I roll my eyes at the guys at my club who are complaining about how high $ 12 min wage is, while shooting $12 shells, $11 practice rounds, and $20k guns.

    To help the sport, these shooters should volunteer to score, or load traps once in a while

    I'm getting to believe ammo Dealers set the price of ammo according to Minimum Wage ? Color doesn't seem to make a difference , anymore !

    The ATA has got the money. How many million $ in the kitty? They need to start pay at $20 an hour, and go from there, based on experience...

    $12 an hour and $5.00 gas. After taxes probably clearing $4.00.
