Opportunity for a Unique Hunting Experience

The Marine Scout Sniper Heritage Foundation is offering a raffle for a hunting trip in northern England to support a memorial for Marine Scout Snipers.

What happened

The Marine Scout Sniper Heritage Foundation is conducting a raffle for a hunting experience in northern England, close to the Scottish border. The winner and a guest will enjoy five days of guided hunting for roebuck, fallow deer, and red deer, along with expert shooting instruction from U.K. Special Forces and U.S. Marine Scout Sniper instructors.

Raffle tickets are being sold to raise funds for a Marine Scout Sniper War Memorial, which will be built in Semper Fidelis Memorial Park adjacent to the National Museum of the Marine Corps. The deadline for purchasing tickets is midnight on March 16, with the winner announced the following day.

All expenses for the trip, including travel, food, and lodging, will be covered. Participants do not need to bring their own rifles, as the foundation has partnered with Accuracy International to provide high-quality sniper rifles for the hunt on private land exceeding 10,000 acres.

Why it matters

• The memorial will honor the legacy and contributions of Marine Scout Snipers throughout history.
• Funds raised will support the construction of the memorial, which aims to recognize the sacrifices of these service members.
• The raffle offers a unique opportunity for outdoor enthusiasts to engage in a memorable hunting experience while supporting a worthy cause.

What to do next

• Consider purchasing a raffle ticket before the March 16 deadline to enter for a chance to win the hunting trip.
• Visit the National Museum of the Marine Corps to learn more about the history of Marine Scout Snipers and their contributions.
