Some missions never end—only the battlefield changes.

May 30th, we regroup at Dixon Range for the Memorial Day Multi-Weapon Tournament 🇺🇸

No ranks. No politics. No pretending.
Just veterans, families, and good people standing shoulder to shoulder.

This is more than a competition.
It’s camaraderie.
It’s connection.
It’s a reminder that nobody fights alone after coming home.

This annual tournament also serves as a fundraiser for Rally Point Appalachia. With support from Spearhead Trails and this community, we continue the mission of providing free, peer-led support and resources for veterans, service members, and their families throughout the Appalachian Region of Southwest Virginia, Eastern Kentucky, and North East Tennessee.

Every trigger pulled.
Every laugh exchanged.
Every conversation beside the range.
That’s the mission now.

🗓 Saturday, May 30, 2026
📍 Dixon Range – 418 Dixon Range Rd. Clintwood, VA
🎯 Pistol • Rifle • S***t • Trap
🍽 Lunch provided
🛡 Ammunition, safety glasses, and hearing protection provided free

Free for veterans | $20 for veteran-invited guests
Bring extra cash for raffles & event t-shirts.

Report time is simple:
Show up. Check in. Watch each other’s six.

Because sometimes the best peer support in the world looks less like therapy…
and more like a day on the range with people who understand.

**Rally Point Appalachia was built on one belief: financial hardship should never block access to support, camaraderie, or resources.**
**If you'd like to help us continue the mission or have questions about this or other events, message us or call 276-926-1680 and ask for Veteran & Military Services.**
