First, let me report to anyone not able to make last night's meeting; you will want to make it when Chief Ruff returns in the future. His focus was an important subject that a basic carry class doesn't allow the time to explain in detail; the physiological effects experienced under stress, as we may encounter in a self defense situation and how to control this to your advantage. Important information, that could literally save your life and those you're protecting that Chief Ruff delivered with an outstanding mix of seriousness and humor. My thanks to him on behalf of TFA!
We had a dozen volunteers sign up for The St. Jude Charity shoot sponsored by area Friends Of The NRA and Range USA.

TFA will be recruiting new members at the event and we're meeting with FONRA board members on being a co-sponsor. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is a world class facility that performs miracles to the children they help. This is a great cause that promotes a positive image for the Gun Rights Community and a lot of fun. It will be a blast, literally!
