Just so you know, our WOT classes here in San Diego have been filled to waiting lists. We've been having to add additional classes. I hope this is a new trend, a NATION-WIDE trend.

If you want/need ideas for a flyer, take a look at our's.

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.

I just found out that we are full. Last year, we did it on short notice and had 35 women. This year, there were a dozen registrations before we actually advertised. The clubhouse only holds 50, so there isn't a lot of room.

Our flier:

I think it's GREAT more women are getting involved in shooting and being interested in being able to protect their own families. I encourage it, I applaud it, and I endorse it - may our ranks for free-thinking people continue to swell!

44 women showed up to shoot with about a dozen instructors. 4 ARs, 20-30 handguns, plus shotguns and an archery station.

It was a blast. Everyone had fun, and most of the women are already asking about next year's event.

I would say 75% of the attendees had either never shot anything, or not shot much. There were a lot of 'new' shooters, which is a lot of fun.

That's 30-35 women who have learned that EBRs can't load themselves and go on a rampage, and handguns aren't scary by themselves. They'll never vote for a gun control candidate after a day like yesterday.
