Hi, My name is Tricia and I am the Leader of the Lake County In Chapter of The Well Armed Woman. Just wanted to share the news here to get the word out to Lake County ladies who might be interested in joining our group!
THE WELL ARMED WOMAN SHOOTING CHAPTERS BEGIN.
A PLACE FOR WOMEN TO LEARN AND PRACTICE
Hammond, In June 19, 2014... Gun ownership and the complex laws surrounding the use of firearms is a significant topic around the nation. The 2011 Gallop Poll reported forty-seven percent of American adults currently have a gun in their home and twenty three percent of women personally own a firearm. This reported gun ownership is the highest it has been in nearly two decades. With women being the largest growing segment of this the historically male dominated demographic, industry scrambles to meet the need.
With the number of women now owning firearms at such high levels, women are eager to learn and practice with other women. For a woman new to shooting, the very male driven industry can be intimidating. To create woman friendly opportunities to practice and learn, The Well Armed Woman,LLC is introducing Shooting Chapters all over the country with a new chapter here in Hammond starting soon.
The Well Armed Woman Lake County Indiana Shooting Chapter will give women of all experience levels the opportunity to be introduced to issues important to women shooters, learn safe gun handling skills and train together.
The Well Armed Woman Lake County Indiana Chapter is being spearheaded by Tricia Heath, a local female gun enthusiast. Events will be held monthly and open to all women, 21 years or older. The Well Armed Woman has partnered with Deb’s Gun Range to be the host range for these monthly events. Time will be devoted to discussion and topical study as well as time on the range learning and practicing safe gun handling skills at each monthly event.
Participants will be required to pay any applicable range fees and costs of ammunition or firearm rentals. (If rentals are available at your host range) Annual Chapter membership dues of $50 offers members local and national discounts, chapter hat and member kit and is used to cover chapter expenses, insurance and events. First time attendees are not required to join.
