September Update!

Summer may be on the way out but...events at the Kent Rod & Gun Club keep rolling-in!

Everyone is looking forward to our Ladies Day at the Range on Sunday, September 17th...we are expecting an outstanding turnout for this "Girls Only" day of fun with an emphasis on education and safety throughout the day!

Our team of Certified Instructors will be ready to assist any of our guests who are preparing to process their New York State Pistol License Application and...for any lady needing assistance with a license amendment or wanting to upgrade their existing license...we will be ready to help!

The day will begin with a Welcome Breakfast, Safety Lectures, a visit from Judge James Reitz, who will address our guests, and then...a Gourmet Luncheon!  Right after, the girls will head outside for some range time and enjoy target shooting, archery and trap shooting...all under the watchful eyes of our Instructors.  And after that...dessert!  We treat our guests very well!


The best part?  Everything is completely...complimentary!

**Once again, we offer apologies to several ladies who were misled by an unauthorized, and erroneous, mention of this event on Lohud, the website of The Journal News.  Our event Chairwoman has reached out to each lady who attempted to register after the deadline and extended every courtesy so that they will be included in our September gathering.

 It is not now, and never will be, the practice of our club to have any of our club events promoted by the Gannett Newspaper chain who, in recent times, sought to publicly map the personal data of legally registered gun owners in New York State in their publications.**
