When you think of Burbank High School the last thing you don’t want to hear is that there are Rifles on Campus.

But this was not always the case.

As a matter of fact Burbank High and Remington Arms had a great relationship.   Remington provided first class arms and ammunition to the school’s Rifle Club. No one would have batted an eye seeing a student walking across the campus carrying their new Remington in its case on match day!

Students participated in matches at McCambridge Park and across Southern California. From all accounts the students were good shots and even talked about in a national magazine ad for Remington.

So remember next time you drive by Burbank High, that it was once home to first class student  marksmen!
