The kids are back in class, the schedules are getting busier, and life is finding its fall rhythm again. And if you’re a parent looking for a little breather or a family ready to celebrate a successful start to the school year, there’s no better time to step outside and enjoy something different.
At Etowah Valley Sporting Clays in Dawsonville, Georgia, we make it easy to swap screen time and schoolwork for fresh air, family time, and friendly competition. From first-time shooters to returning guests, there’s something for everyone to enjoy, right here in North Georgia.

🗓 Weekday Quiet, Weekend Buzz – You Choose!
With school back in session, weekday visits are often quieter, making them perfect for those who enjoy a slower pace or want to try something new with less crowd pressure.
Prefer a weekend vibe? Saturdays and Sundays at EVSC are filled with energy, laughter, and the friendly hum of groups enjoying time together, great for birthday parties, family gatherings, or team retreats.

Let’s make this season one to remember. 🍁🎯
