Williamsburg, KY – Scholastic 3-D Archery is proud to announce Trip Penn as the Georgia S3DA State Conservation Outreach Coordinator. Trip will work alongside Georgia S3DA State Coordinator, Jake Martin and S3DA National Outreach Coordinator, Scott Cronin, to provide S3DA clubs and teams across the state with archery, hunting and conservation related activities, especially during regional and state tournaments. Trip stated, “Teaching children about conservation is an excellent way to teach them to value what they have and to look after those things.”

Trip Penn currently resides in Evans, Georgia with his wife, Kim, and their two daughters, Allie and Emily. Trip is currently a Lieutenant with the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office and has worked with law enforcement for twenty-four years.
