Update on my courses
Hi - Here is an update on my courses:
1) Lunch on Labor Day - Utah Concealed Firearm Permit Course. - From time to time my friend who is supplying the classroom area does an airport cookout at his hanger. The amended schedule for my UT CFP Course is teaching Module 1 and 2 from 10:00 am to 12:00 to 13:00 or whatever it takes - break for a picnic lunch - the Yellow Cat is supplying hot dogs, buns, condiments, baked beans and chips with a "tip jar". (Contributions are voluntary and are not required.) My friend(s) not taking the course will grill the hot dogs. Those who wish to bring a picnic type dish to share are encouraged to do so, but it is voluntary and NOT REQUIRED. During lunch, you will be mingling with several of the local pilots who will be stopping by for lunch.
Firearm Familiarity and Safety will be taught after lunch is served - those taking ONLY the UT CFP course can settle their fees with me and I will affix my seal to their applications - short break - to be followed by the NRA Pistol Course (Students will have already had Part 1 and Part 2 of the course and part of Part 3 - to be followed by Parts 4, 5, & 6.
2) A range closer to the classroom. - Unless something comes up, I have learned a great deal about the gun shops local to East Troy, Elkhorn, and the surrounding area. Nobody was able to help me, but one guy did explain that a local UT CFP Instructor who lives in WI and comes to SE Wisconsin to do UT CFP courses for $80 / head to $150 / head pays the gun shops a $20 - $40 "finder fee" for signing up students. A renegade UT Instructor offering wounded or disabled Vets the course for $10 and with a maximum fee of $40 for students who are not members of WI Carry or NRA - well, that seriously cuts into their business because I can't charge a Vet $10 for the course and pay the gun shop a $40 fee per student for arranging a range + the range fee. So, Outdoorsman's range is the only option unless something else turns up. (Students will have to pony up $10 / head range fee.)
To date, it looks like 7 students for the NRA Course and 15 or more for the UT CFP.
