Chuck Bjork (Trustee) - Chuck grew up in northwest Iowa, across the street from a trap shooting range run by his grandfather.  While shot gunning was his family's primary focus, he picked up pistol shooting after breaking his collarbone one winter.  Since that time, Chuck has enjoyed competitive pistol shooting (USPSA, Friday Night Steel, Bowling Pin Shooting) and even helped start the Friday Night Steel program at MCF&G.  Chuck still enjoys an annual pheasant hunting trip with family in northwest Iowa, but competitive pistol shooting remains his favorite shooting sport.

"As a trustee at Marion County Fish and Game, it is my goal to grow membership and improve our facility.  I would like to promote shooting sports in Indiana, and leave MCF&G better than I found it, both physically and financially.  I think we can do this by spending the club's money wisely, and by promoting profitable programs at MCF&G."
