Some folks were seeking clarification on another social media site and we were going to make another announcement later but here it is.

Each participant will also be getting a copy of her shooting skills book, a catered hot meal will be provided for students, a special event participant t-shirt and Gabby is sponsored by Remington, a Para 1911 will be given away to someone. The price includes everything. Class size is limited to 8 students per class and they're going pretty quickly.

The X-Ring range won't be open to the general public at that time but the range will have the back stops in but not the lanes so Gabby can host her classes. Gabby's students will be the first ones to utilize this brand new range.

We will also be putting videos together for Gabby and Shooting Sports Hawaii will be shooting some episodes with her as well.

+2 just purchased for friday eve.  is it just lecture only as the calendar doesn't show her bullseye logo and I'm not sure what the hastag means in this case.

How's the Sunday class looking?  Memorial Day weekend so not sure can commit just yet.  Would hate to miss it though!

Memorial Day is the weekend after Gabby's events. To many other club events and BBQs that weekend so we didn't schedule her for Memorial Day weekend. And Friday is LECTURE ONLY. NO LIVE FIRE.

Gabby really is super kewl to work with. She and I started to talk about these clinics back in 2013 while we were still trying to get traction for Shooting Sports Hawaii. 2015 is when all the stars lined up. I had contacted other tactical instructors and all I got was a lot of bravado, demands, crazy fees and they were way, way harder to sell to anybody. 8 out of 10 folks never heard about them and I had to spend 5 minutes explaining who they were. In Gabby's case 8 out of 10 folks knew who she was and majority of folks weren't even into the shooting sports.

Gotcha', no problemo.  It all starts with mindset so this will be interesting to attend.  Looks like we got a carpool going over now too :)
Memorial Day still comes up as May 25 on my calendar but keeping the 24th open for a chance.

Ahh, you're right. The last Monday of May. Several clubs have their events on the last weekend of the month so we wanted to avoid a conflict with their schedules none the less.
