Kent County Conservation League

Since opening in 1930, Kent County Conservation League has sheltered shooting fields and courses dispersed among more than 170 acres of wooded and open land. Sharpshooters of all experience levels can mill about a sporting clay course's 13 shooting stations as they shatter targets flung from abundant angles or nestle into a five-stand course's covered range before eliminating 25 clays. The League's rifle range distributes targets at intervals between 50 and 300 yards and their pistol range remains lit for nighttime sessions. As they draw back a tightly strung bow on the archery course, patrons can finally live out their childhood Robin Hood fantasies without donning green tights in an effort to frighten neighborhood kings.

Certified instructor Tim Wiley gives pupils the benefit of more than 15 years' skeet shooting experience during group or private lessons on five fields huddled behind Kent County Conservation League's clubhouse. Visitors can find additional instruction at defensive shooting sessions or a shooting program for youngsters that covers trap, sporting clays, and skeet. Delectable bites await famished gunslingers at Shooter's Grill, and a pro shop equips patrons with gun-toting apparel and silver bullets for clays that transform into werewolves. Kent County Conservation League hosts private and public events annually, and their grounds have welcomed major shooting outings such as the 2010 Michigan Sporting Clays Championship.

The Groupon Guiding Light: Real Advice for Real People

It is incumbent upon the learned of a society to help those with lesser cranial machinations. That is why we have started The Groupon Guiding Light: Real Advice for Real People. Because here at The Groupon Guide, we know that Knowledge Is Helping™. (To receive your own Groupon Guiding Light in the next installment, email a problem that needs advice to cat@groupon.com.)

Problem:
Dear TGGL:RAFRP,
My daughter is in love with a real LOSER! Should I respect her feelings and support her decision or forget about her altogether?

—Unhappy Mom

Guiding Light: Unhap P. Mom, you did the right thing by writing us. Your daughter is in love with a loser?!?!? Those guys are the worst. They never win anything, not even once. And the fact that this guy is a real loser means he’s not even a winner disguised as a loser. Oh boy, Unhap, this is serious. Losers do terrible things such as accidentally sell the farm for a fake car or miss the winning field goal in the football game. If she’s kissed him, it means by rule of law that she is now a loser, too. Rid her from your life by moving into a gated community or going somewhere losers can’t go, such as a hall of fame or a casino that is also a boat. We all know the old saying: "For it is upon thee to cast the weak off into darkness, like the miller who sets the chaff to flame, or the heifer who leaveth the ugliest calf behind to be taken by the night’s hungry creatures."

Problem:
Dear TGGL:RAFRP,
I am supposed to go on a really cool ski trip with my dad, but my wife is pregnant with our first child and the due date conflicts with the trip. What do I tell my dad?
—Chris R.

Guiding Light: Best to keep the baby away from your father. At his age and proximity to—how to put this gently—eternal sleep, your father could easily become jealous and rage-ified toward someone who has so much life ahead of them. Rather than taking the pregnant woman on the trip, let her just have the baby at the hospital. She’ll be fine. Hospitals are clean and sterile, and sometimes the doctors sleep with each other, which creates entertaining dramatic intrigue. You just make sure to enjoy what sounds like a really cool trip with your dad.

Problem:
Dear TGGL:RAFRP,
I sing bass in a barbershop quartet that is competing in an international quartet competition. Can you give me any pointers that would help me/my quartet have a memorable performance and might help us achieve top honors?
—A. Stratton

Guiding Light: Thanks for the letter, "Stratton in Baton" (Rouge, Louisiana, I'm assuming). Growing up can be difficult—and scary. Sometimes the person you think you are isn't who you're good at being, and sometimes the people who we think we want to get the farthest away from are actually the people who can teach us the most. Try to strike a balance between your goals and your obligations and, in the end, you may find out there's more overlap there than you realize.

I didn't read your letter.

Seriously, to receive your own Groupon Guiding Light in the next installment, email a problem that needs advice to cat@groupon.com.

We’re so helpful to everybody with everything.
