Eddie Eagle Gun Safety classes will be starting next week October 6th at 6:30 pm 2009  for kids in grades 1st to 5th grade.

This class teaches kids about gun safety and what to do if they are in a situation where a gun is involved. It also teaches kids about other safety ideas, like what do you do if you are separated from you parents at the mall? What do you do if you are approached by a stranger at the park? When is it O.K. to dial 911?
 
This is a very interesting course for younger kids to participate in and learn about gun safety. If you are interested in signing your child up for this class.
