World-renowned target setter, Joe Scull, is coming home to Cedar Creek Sporting Clays and will be sharing his secrets in a 6-hour Target Setting Training Clinic on Tuesday, May 19th, starting at 8:30am.

This group-based clinic teaches everything needed to set targets for shotgun sports: From important safety measures like understanding shot fall zones to how shooters see targets, and how to set them in a way that looks easy but requires focus.

You’ll get hands-on practice setting targets with personalized feedback to help you improve. By the end of the clinic, you’ll know how to set targets that are challenging and enjoyable for everyone, from beginners to experts.

The Battleship New Jersey Museum and Memorial is thrilled to announce its First Annual Sporting Clay Invitational, taking place on Thursday, June 26, 2025, aboard the historic Battleship New Jersey, docked on the Camden Waterfront. In a truly one-of-a-kind setting, twenty teams and 80 individual shooters will shoot biodegradable clay targets over the Delaware River, combining a high-adrenaline sporting experience with an unforgettable maritime venue.

This signature fundraising event will support the Battleship’s mission of preservation,
education, and honoring veterans. Proceeds will go toward restoration projects, community
programs, and keeping this national icon open and accessible to the public. Click here to purchase tickets.

The Invitational is presented in partnership with Cedar Creek Sporting Clays, which is providing

“This is a first for us—and for the sport,” said Joe Pancoast, owner of Cedar Creek Sporting
Clays. “It’s a safe, environmentally responsible event using non-lead shot and biodegradable
targets, and it takes place on one of the most iconic ships in the world. We’re proud to help
make it happen.”

“We wanted to create something bold, memorable, and completely unique to the Battleship,”
said Marshall Spevak, CEO of the Battleship New Jersey. “There’s nothing else like it in the

American history.”
