Women learn about, practice shooting at second of four events

SHERIDAN – Eighteen women learned about gun safety and practiced shooting during a program Saturday at the Sheridan County Sportsmen’s Association.

The event — called “Women on Target” — was the second of four classes funded by an $8,000 grant from the National Rifle Association that was awarded this January. The next class Sept. 29 will focus on rifle shooting and the final one Oct. 6 will focus on shotguns.
