This women only event will cover education in pistol, shotgun, rifle and archery. The cost is $65/person this year and will be inclusive of all firearms, ammo and lunch at the Conference Center.
Women will benefit from one-on-one instruction with certified instructors in each discipline. Participants will receive materials and a certificate of participation.
This is a fantastic event for those women that have never held a firearm before to maybe those that have experience in a discipline but not another.

WORK PARTY!
We’ll have our spring frame and Bowling Pin Table work party this coming Saturday February 26th at 10:00. We will build 7 bowling pin tables and replace the SRB target frames. Some other frames require some repair, but not replacement. We will need at least one table saw to rip the lower cross member of the frames. Some miter saws and drills/drivers should do the rest. If you have Torx drivers, bring T20 through T30.
We will be working on the 50-yard range and the hundred will remain open, except for time to retrieve and replace frames for repair. Given sufficient turn out we should be done by noon.
I also need volunteers to get service hours for shooting! The wood for the work above will be delivered sometime Friday. I won’t know more about scheduling until late Thursday or Friday morning. I’d like 2 volunteers to cover all day Friday. One from 8 until 12, and the other from 12 until 4. You’re free to shoot, or just lounge around. I just need the range open and someone to accept the delivery. If you’re interested, please contact me via email at [email protected].
Thanks, and see you on the range.
