A Celebration of Life for longtime President Walter J. Toepfer was held at the Lake Superior Sportsman’s Club’s new facility. Walt was the driving force to get the facility built, and he was meant to be the first person to send a shot down range. But it was not to be.  In honor of his commitment, his son Glenn and daughter-in-law Joanna stood in for him to fulfill that moment, along with friends and members of the LSSC. 13 rounds went down range, one for each year that it took to get this “ Vision for the Future” of LSSC to be completed. Around sixty attended, with Glen, Joanna, Lori Burford, Micah Brown and Bill Carrothers speaking.

Walt’s passion for promoting and teaching the safe use of firearms to the future generations of shooters will be hard to match; LSSC will attempt to be up to the task. Because of his efforts, and our partnership with the MDNR, we all have a state of the art facility to spread his passion further than ever seemed possible..
