Girls Getta Grip Gun Club has updated the training calendar, while still embracing COVID 19 protocols. We are publishing a schedule for January and February but actual execution will be based our Public Officials' guidelines. Meantime, we announce to give individuals to pre-plan their firearm training schedules. It is impressive the number of women who have started their firearms training journey!
We will publish monthly schedules that will basically be consistent from month to month. For example, there will be two (2) 'Introduction to the Fundamentals of Firearms & Firearms Safety Courses' scheduled for every first and second weekend of the month. The third weekend will be random training or no training at all. CCW License Classes will (normally) be scheduled every 4th weekend. We are still limiting these classes to Members only.
Zoom Orientation Sessions will (normally) be conducted on Wednesdays (6p) and Thursdays (7p): hours may change if training is scheduled or we may do one-on-one orientation(s).
POP Programs (Privately Owned Pistol) will be every other Wednesday. (6p) POP Program will oftentimes be combined with a Range Visit, Simulation Training Exercises, or a Gun Safety Video.

My name is Mary E. Edwards-Fears, CEO & Owner of Girls Getta Grip Gun Club. I retired as a decorated Police Captain of the St. Louis Metropolitan Police. During my police career, I did safety programs for Girls Scout groups, Church groups and I even facilitated range visits on my off days. Which is why we at Girls Getta Grip Gun Club have made women's safety our business. Our goal is to increase confident gun owners.
My husband Mike and I spent the past two years conducting research, fostering staff and range relationships to provide an environment where women could relax and get educated on the fundamentals of firearms training. Studies show that although women gun ownership is as high as 40%, many of them are still hesitant about visiting the range. One woman I surveyed told me a man told her "women who come to the range must be looking a date..."
Not true: Women simply want to be educated about firearms. Women want to protect themselves and/or their loved ones from harm. They are smart enough to know that simply possessing a CCW License isn't enough. So they try to join gun clubs that sometimes treat them as second class citizens or as if they don't belong. Of course there are more clubs that are now more welcoming to women but who still do not offer specialized to the degree that Girls Getta Grip Gun Club does. We have made women's safety our business!

Women, if you live in a town that allows Conceal Carry Licenses, you are strongly encouraged to get one. It proves to the authorities that you are a serious and responsible gun owner. If you ever are involved a violent encounter wherein you are forced to defend yourself, a CCW License, and any prior and subsequent training will increase your chances for a positive outcome with the authorities.
Your 2nd Amendment Right entitles you to protect yourself under circumstances where you believe you will be seriously harmed and your life is in danger. At GGGGC, we educate you on what that could look and feel like. We are not lawyers but we will invite them to workshops to provide us with even greater clarity on gun laws.
Please note that all training has resumed however we still follow strict COVID-19 national protocols. Due to the nature of a true quality firearm training experience, we strongly encourage anyone who may feel uncomfortable to refrain from training until the COVID 19 issue has declined. For those who want to train, we will exert all the necessary precautions to keep the community and Staff Members safe.

Situation awareness is key. Small things like walking with a purpose instead of idly walking, purse on your shoulder in front of your body versus in the grocery cart, and being alert rather than on the cell phone having a heated conversation with your honey. We will help you replace bad habits with good habits.
Refuse To Be A Victim Workshop will be offered to those women who want to learn best strategies to keep themselves safe (February). This is an NRA sponsored program where students will be provided notebooks and plenty clues to safe living. Students will also receive a Certificate of Completion. There will be no actual firearms training or handling in this class, but there will be some instruction on firearm safety and storage.
