Gracie Shaw Wins AG & AG Scholarship

2A Heritage is proud to announce that Gracie Shaw is the recipient of the A Girl & A Gun (AG & AG) scholarship to the June camp in South Carolina.
“Gracie is a remarkable girl and we are proud to help her develop shooting skills at the highest level,” says Julianna Crowder, Founder of AG & AG. “We love seeing girls gain empowerment and confidence through the shooting sports.” Raychel Shaw, Gracie’s mom, agreed, “I’m so excited to watch her grow in this sport! We’ve tried so many things with her, softball, piano, etc., and I never saw a spark until 3 gun! The support and encouragement she received from the shooting community is transforming my timid, shy little girl into a confident young lady! It’s even affecting her confidence in other areas, like school work and reading aloud in Sunday School!”
Gracie will be joining the other campers for the event, and we are excited about having her attend! Pack your swimsuit and a towel too, Gracie, because there is a pool at Clinton House and Mike Johnson has gone out of his way to get it ready for you kids!

A Girl & A Gun to Sponsor 2A Heritage Junior Camps

AUSTIN, TX — A Girl & A Gun Women’s Shooting League (AG & AG) announced that it will be a sponsor for the 2A Heritage Junior Camps in 2016. AG & AG will host a pizza dinner for the participants and their parents during the camp. The organization will also sponsor registration fees for a lucky AG & AG youth member to attend. “AG & AG has welcomed thousands of women into the shooting community, so we have seen an increase in family participation as well,” says Julianna Crowder, Founder of AG & AG. “Shooting sports have traditionally been a family activity; however, over the past 20 years, participation tapered so that most children only touched on marksmanship with pellet guns at summer camps. 2A Heritage gives junior shooters the opportunity to develop shooting skills at the highest level. We are proud to support their programs to educate the next generation of competitive shooters.” The 2A Heritage Junior Camps will take place in the summer in Clinton, SC, and Topton, PA. Only 25 campers will be accepted into each event. Classes will take place on the first two days of camp, followed by a match-style shoot the final day. Campers will receive instruction on pistol, rifle, shotgun (basic), long-range rifle, shotgun on the move/slugs/buckshot, advanced pistol skills, and transitions and stage planning. AG & AG youth members who have active memberships and have competed in at least four 3-gun matches are eligible to win. The lucky member will receive a sponsorship from AG & AG to be a 2A Heritage camper. The drawing will be held on May 1, 2016. More information can be found at www.2aheritage.org.
