    NRA "Women on Target" SF East Bay classes

    Any Calguns members that teach SF East Bay "Women on Target" firearms classes? Any chance these wonderful instructors also shoot at the Chabot Gun Range?

    Could use some help with this!


    Thanks

        from the NRA website:

        With the number of women shooters on the rise, the NRA is dedicated to providing programs and resources to female gun enthusiasts. Through our women’s programs, you have the opportunity to receive firearms training by certified instructors, get involved in clubs and competitions, and receive awards and scholarships, and much more.


        perhaps checking with them directly you'll find out if any of the instructors go to Chabot?

        had no idea there was a group in Scotts Valley!

          Thanks! With the USI range closing down thought it was a no brainer that the Women on Target would move to Chabot for a few classes. The idea is to introduce females to the shooting sports, right?

          Saigon 1965 held a Calguns meet there and we where very impressed with the amount of father daughter teams and young women shooters.

              don't know anyone in the East Bay and live too far away to be assisting.
              would Chabot know of people who would assist and/or be interested?
              might they be willing to ask around and/or keep a list?
              just throwing out ideas.

                      btt: good question, dad.
                      I assume all three are an option, if not together as separate 3 sessions?

                        We (CALGUNS) normally run them seperate so the student gets class on the fundamentals and not just point/click/bang

                          Without getting flamed! My Wife is showing an interest in handguns, pistols and revolvers, and has chosen Chabot Rife Range as the place where She wants to shoot. I'm pleased and want her to learn safe gun handling. I'm thinking the NRA "Women on Target" classes would be great, the problem is, the NRA group in Concord show little interest in doing any meets in Castro Valley.

                          I believe the Chabot Rifle Range would be a very good place for these type of events. During a recent visit we seen a number of father's with young girls at the range, times have sure changed.

                          Help!

                            There are a few task that I need to complete to make ths happen.
                            Range agreement
                            Instructor resource gathering
                            Equipment resource gathering
                            Scheduling
                            Cost

                            It is pretty standard stuff, nothing out of the ordinary but it will take the reaminder of this year to complete.
