CASA of Denton County celebrated a monumental milestone on Friday, May 1, 2026, hosting its 25th Annual Pulling for Kids sporting clay tournament. Held at Northlake Shooting Sports in Northlake, Texas, this signature fundraising event brought together outdoor enthusiasts, business leaders, and community champions for a premier day of friendly competition and philanthropy. Presented by LeadsOnline, the milestone anniversary highlighted a quarter-century of community dedication to raising critical funds for children in foster or alternative care who have experienced abuse or neglect.

The tournament offered participants an exceptional experience on a premier sporting clay course, blending sharp-shooting action with a festive, community-driven atmosphere. Every registered shooter was treated to complimentary meals, refreshing beverages, event t-shirts, and hats, alongside high-stakes entry into a popular firearms raffle. Beyond the shooting stations, local volunteers, corporate sponsors, and participants mingled during the awards ceremony, celebrating both individual marksmanship and the collective impact of the day's fundraising efforts.

At its core, the 25th annual event served as a powerful reminder of CASA's vital mission in Denton County, where hundreds of children enter the child welfare system each year. The proceeds generated from the tournament directly fund the recruitment, extensive training, and ongoing support of Court Appointed Special Advocate volunteers. By ensuring that vulnerable children have a dedicated advocate to stand up for their best interests in court, the Pulling for Kids shoot continues to change the trajectory of local lives, transforming community support into a lifeline of safety, stability, and hope.
