St. Joe Valley Rifle and Pistol Association, Inc. was founded in 1930 by 5 clubs. Today, the Association is still comprised of 5 clubs located in Northern Indiana and Southern Michigan. All 5 clubs have their own members and activities which feed into St. Joe Valley. These clubs primarily compete in an Indoor Bullseye Pistol Gallery League from October to March. The Outdoor Pistol League begins in April and continues through September. This league is an individual competition as opposed to the Indoor League which is a team event.
