Comp's for kids

I have a 10 year old boy that LOVES to shoot. He shoots already whenever we can both pistols and long guns. He started shooting at 6 and passed his hunters safety class at 7 and harvested his first deer that season.
We have talked about looking for an organized event that possibly runs monthly.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I just saw the Appleseed thread and am going to register for that but that doesn't seem like a competitive shoot.
Thanks for any help.

Monocacy Pistol Club in Frederick has lots of weekend competitive shooting events many of which allow rimfire rifles and pistols. Most are speed events but we also have Critters (Metallic Silhouette) events from March to November. Shooters under 12 get to shoot from sandbags at 4 sets of 10 animal steel targets at progressivley longer distances using .22LR rifles and pistols. We have Speed Steel which is kind of a combination of Steel Challenge and Ruger Rimfire events where both .22LR rifles and pistols are allowed (as are centerfire pistols). This event is shot all year around as is Rimfire Falling Steel.
We also have an NRA Winchester Marksmanship program and a junior rifle team (adult must be a member).

I'd also recommend checking some of the events at Sanner's Lake (http://www.sannerslake.org/). My daughter has enjoyed several of their events, including the Rimfire Challenge and the Bowling Pin shoot.
