Another Successful Women on Target Clinic for RPRC

Rappahannock Pistol and Rifle Club (RPRC), a VSSA affiliated club, held their fall Women On Target (WOT) Instructional Shooting Clinic on Oct 1st. The club had 49 women and about 40 club volunteers.  Once again the clinic was a great success.

Using feedback provided by attendees of the spring clinic and the club's observations from the spring WOT clinic, the club incorporated informational sessions this time which provided the ladies additional learning opportunities while waiting their turn on the actual firing line. The club also had a Virginia State Trooper provide two sessions on personal protection in the morning and then in the afternoon one of the club's veteran NRA certified instructors spoke on what the ladies needed to consider when selecting a pistol.

Thanks to the RPRC volunteers, transitioning the ladies between the informational session and the firing ranges occurred without a problem.
