It will be an informative and enjoyable day.”
Registration begins at 8:30 a.m. the day of the event, followed by a discussion on the second amendment led by Dr. David Raney, Hillsdale College history professor. There will be an introductory course on firearms safety before participants travel to the shooting sports education center, a 112-acre, state-of-the-art shooting facility located off campus. Ammunition, firearms, and safety gear will be supplied. Continental breakfast, a barbecue luncheon, and door prizes are also included.
