This course utilizes materials from the National Shooting Sports Foundation to introduce children to the shooting sports and how to properly use and store firearms while also going over in-depth safety procedures while handling firearms.
Parent participation is required. Each child’s parent will be required to sit through the class and range time in order to learn with their child and to foster a relationship of respect and trust between the child, the parent and the use and storage of firearms.
This course will provide students with a Keystone Crickett .22LR and all materials needed for the classroom and the range portion of the class including ammo. Each student will receive the Keystone Crickett Rifle they learn with as a gift to take with them.
