Texas group to train women on firearms use

(NaturalNews) - Some say there is no more naturally protective force than a mother looking out for her children, and one organization is doing all it can to make that task easier for moms - by teaching them how to handle and use a firearm.

According to Breitbart News, the group - the Houston, Texas-based Armed Citizen Project - says it will sponsor a "National Empowerment Day" aimed at training and arming 500 single mothers and other women across the country. The date for the event is Aug. 10 and will represent a "massive expansion of the group's efforts," according to its executive director, Kyle Coplen, who spoke to Breitbart News exclusively.

Great time at the Kid's Fishing Derby

At long last, here are photos from the June 15 Kid's Fishing Derby.  As you can see, it was a highly successful event with 36 registered participants and more than 100 total kids, parents and club members on hand to share the wonderful experience of fishing together.

We'll be running more photos in the days ahead.

Our thanks to everyone who helped make this one of our more successful events.

A special thanks to President Tom Hamilton for making these photos available. Apologies from the blogmeister for the delay in posting the photos.
