Friends of NRA Banquet – Feb 3

Uncategorized

Fellow members,

As an NRA member you may not be aware of the Friends of the NRA.  It is the portion of the NRA that does education and programs like (Women on Target, Eddie eagle and more), otherwise know as the Foundation.  Because this portion is non-profit, the foundation does not do any of the lobbing or politicking.  The Friends of NRA raises money to provide grants to non-profits.  No salaries are paid for from the money we raise, all profits go towards grants.

In 2023 in the state of Virginia we provided grants to the following:

    •4-H Shooting programs – $136,611
    •Boy Scout Shooting Programs – $74,637
    •Youth Shooting Programs- $86,889
    •JROTC Shooting Programs- $32,597
    •College Shooting Teams – $25,928
    •Ranges/Education – $19,090
    •LE & Veteran programs – $14,880
We can provide these grants because of money raised at banquets such as the one schedule by the Tidewater Friends of NRA.  The charity event involves games, raffles, and a live auction as well as dinner.  It is a great event serving a great cause.  You can purchase individual tickets for $100 each or you can purchase a table of 8 and get a gun with the purchase!!  Prices of a table of 8 are $1000, $1500, $2000, $2500 and $3000.  The available firearms change as you change in price.  If you buy a table now, we will order it and you can get your gun before the event!  Contact me to see the list of available guns!

The Kinetic Combative Pistol course is one that will get you thinking about more options and will make you a better shooter AND a better CCW-er.

June 1 & 2 – Critical Carry Skills

Donation of $450.00

This 2 day course will build your Critical Carry Skills for shooting along with your mindset and ability to win a gunfight. These are not ‘range shooting skills’. These are CRITICAL shooting skills that will save your life, taught by Rochester Personal Defense.

Think about this: Once you have been forced to defend yourself, you MUST win. There is no other option. The skills that you will learn and refine in this course are designed to help you do just that. Coupled with the required mindset, you will greatly increase your odds.

This course will also make your reaction time, presentation, reload, and your overall Critical Carry shooting skills faster and more efficient. Our goal is to help you make the transition from thinking about each skill to a near intuitive and efficient and skilled shooter.

If you wish to draw faster, reload faster, become a more accurate shooter, and be able to process information and feedback from your handgun better, this is the course for you!

Critical Carry Skills – for that Critical moment in your life.

For questions email [email protected].

 

We are working on setting dates for more…so stay tuned!  Until then keep training!  If you have

Have a great holiday season!

December Bowling Pin Match results

Bowling Pin Matches

Gentle Shooters,

We draw to the close of another year of Bowling Pin shooting. Thanks to all of our competitors who come out month after month, set up, tear down, and support and even heckle our shooting community. I have to say that I am not worthy of this group that I find myself a part of. It is pleasure to know and get to shoot with each and every one of you. I learn something every time I set foot on the range with all of you. I hope to see all of you around the range this winter and certainly on Saturday, April 6 at 9:30 in the morning at the stunning ASC range for the next installment of how the pins fall. You final scores are posted below, but stay tuned for the 2023 and all time recap coming to a club newsletter near you.
