Training Opportunities at PMRPC

There are numerous training classes offered at PMRPC, ranging from basic gun handling to advanced defensive skills.  Instructors and curricula for all commercial classes must be approved by the Executive Committee.  Contact Judy Velten ( safetyofficer@pmrpc.com) for most information on a particular class. 

Most discipline directors offer classes that introduce you to their competitions.

The listing here is not complete, but we add them to the schedule once the instructors notify us.  The club offers many of the NRA classes as demand requires.  We typically offer NRA Basic Pistol on the fiorst Saturday of every other month. Tactical classes in rifle, pistol or shotgun are offered twice a month by John Froscher on the second and fourth Saturdays.  The FWC Hunter Safety Course is offered 10 times a year on either the first of third weekends.
