The mission of High Cotton Classic is to encourage the development and spiritual growth of young men through their participation in the trapper training program which is a primary focus of our annual sporting clays event. The focus of the trapper training program is to build these young men up as they seek to glorify God through faith, fellowship, and service in their participation in the annual fundraiser.
The vision of High Cotton Classic is to positively impact all who participate in its annual fundraiser sporting clay event, and to use the net proceeds of the event to provide financial support to other Christ-centered efforts and missions in the surrounding community.
