Shotgun blasts peppered the air Friday as over 300 participants in the Cabot Fall Classic took aim at the clay targets at Haussman\u2019s Hidden Hollows in Friendsville.<\/p>\n

With proceeds still being tallied, the event raised over $170,000 for Cabot\u2019s Lackawanna College School of PNG scholarship fund, breaking the $100,000 fundraising goal.<\/p>\n

Cabot spokesman George Stark said, \u201cThe whole event is to benefit Lackawanna College\u2019s School of Petroleum and Natural Gas.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 60 team shot a regular round on one of three courses, then each team tried their luck at the \u201cFlurry\u201d \u2013 a launcher that fires off 200 clay birds in two minutes.<\/p>\n

\u201cI missed a lot of clay birds,\u201d said Loren Salsman, a Com-Tech Inc. employee. Salsman said it was his first time trying his hand at the sport but said he\u2019s do it again. \u201cThe Flurry was a lot of fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

Com-Tech was one of the sponsors of the event, that also had a couple of teams entered into the competition. \u201cWe\u2019re here to support the college,\u201d Salsman said.<\/p>\n

Dan Fenton, of Wyalusing, and a Kenworth employee said, \u201cI don\u2019t think I won any trophies or anything.\u201d Also a first-timer, he said he\u2019d do it again. \u201cIt\u2019s addictive.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI borrowed a gun for today,\u201d Fenton said, \u201cnow I have to go buy a gun.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the clay shoot, Cabot also unveiled its latest donation to the School of PNG \u2013 a gas processing unit.
\nThe unit, made by Finch Technology of West Pittston, is a cross section with an open side where students can readily see how the gas flows through it.<\/p>\n

Steve Voytek, assistant director of the School of PNG, said that in addition to the new equipment and funds raise, the event also served as a way for the college and its students to network with people working in the gas industry.
\n\u201cWe rely on Cabot, and our other industry partners, to introduce new sectors of the industry to our staff members and students,\u201d Voytek said.<\/p>\n

The Fall Classic gave the 50-plus student volunteers a chance to network with different companies working in the natural gas industry.<\/p>\n

One of those industry partners, Baker Hughes took a prominent role in the event \u2013 sponsoring the barbecue lunch served to the participants, as well as donating to the college fund.<\/p>\n

Baker Hughes is a worldwide oil field service company, said Karen Hubbard. The company performs much of the well completion work for Cabot.<\/p>\n

Hubbard, a graduate of Elk Lake, grew up in Dimock, and returned to the area after 12 years. \u201cI came back because of the job opportunities and industry growth,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Congressman Tom Marino (R-10) and State Rep. Sandra Major also turned out for the event.<\/p>\n

Marino said, \u201cThis country can be energy independent in five to 10 years because of natural gas.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said he, along with his Pennsylvania Republican colleagues in the House, are working to limit the federal government\u2019s involvement in the industry.<\/p>\n
