Oh, it is a great place to hold clinics.  I am most pleased to have it back on the Virginia schedule again.  Covid and other issues shut it down for a while.

Many thanks to everyone who organized this. I learned alot about pistol foundations, and I found the defensive mindset portion particularly enlightening.
