Letters to the editor

Dear Editor,

On behalf of the Central Whidbey Sportsman’s Association, we are pleased to report that the Association hosted a very successful Woman’s Firearm Safety Class this past Saturday, April 30. Thirty women from Clinton to Oak Harbor to Everett attended the class. They went away with knowledge of what is expected of them as firearm users and how to safely handle firearms. They also had the opportunity to learn about a variety of firearms including revolvers, clip-fed hand guns, rifles and shotguns and were given the opportunity to shoot on one of our ranges.

CWSA wants to thank you for helping get the word out about this free event. Because of the large response to this class, the CWSA has decided to hold a repeat class on Sept. 3.

Thank you again for helping to get the word out concerning this event which was designed to allow the family traditions of shooting and hunting to safely continue in Washington state.

Sincerely,
Rod R. Mourant
