After a spectacular debut in 2008, the NRA Women's Wilderness Escape will return to the NRA Whittington Center in Raton, N.M., September 24 to October 2, 2009.Women interested in attending this year's event should contact Patty Zollman in the NRA Women's Programs Department at 703-267-1378 or pzollman@nrahq.org. The cost to attend is $1,250.
The Wilderness Escape provides women 18 and older with a nine-day "get away" opportunity to experience firearm education, with exposure to a wide variety of shooting sports activities and an array of enticing hunting and outdoor related activities.
Women will learn to shoot smallbore rifles, scoped/tactical carbines, center-fire rifles, pistols, shotguns, historic firearms and archery equipment. Other activities being planned may include an NRA Wild Turkey Hunter Clinic, Refuse To Be A Victim seminar, survival training, game calling, tree stand safety, mock hunts, stargazing and GPS navigation. It's a hands-on learning experience set in the ruggedly beautiful southern Rocky Mountains.
