This community events calendar is the place to find fun activities and things to do throughout Lewis County, including Centralia, Chehalis and beyond.
Come learn about basic pistol shooting. Safety rules, grip, stance, sight alignment and more. Now is the time to overcome the fear of firearms. If you do not own a firearm that is not a problem. Just bring a box of 9mm Luger and/or a box of .22LR and you can try the different ones I have available. Bring your firearm, appropriate ammo for that firearm, eye/ear protection (I have some to loan of those as well) and a baseball cap. Contact Dolly at 360-978-4338 if you have any questions or would like to register for this class. A $25 non-refundable preregistration fee is required with the balance due at the door.
Education is the first step to overcome your fear of firearms. Want to buy a pistol but don’t know what to look for, then this class is for you. Have a firearm you are not sure about all the buttons and levers, this class is for you. If you do not own a firearm, no problem. I have several for you ladies to try, you would need to bring a box of 9mm Luger/Parabellum and/or .22 LR ammo to the class with you. The class is $75 which includes a $25 non-refundable registration fee. Preregistration is required. Bring eye/ear protection (I have extra of those), your firearm if you have one, the proper ammo for it, and a baseball cap. Call Dolly at 360-978-4338 to register or have your question answered.

The worst time to learn it is when you need that knowledge the most and yet know nothing.” Come and learn how to operate a handgun.
