ACSO hosted their first Ladies Beware class of 2016 on Saturday, March 26 at the Southwest Regional Training Center. Thirty ladies arrived for the class where they signed in prior to entering the building. The ladies were checked for hearing and eye protection, ammo, and their guns cleared and made safe.
Sheriff Patten introduces the day’s agenda while addressing the ladies.
Captain Buddy Frank demonstrates proper handgun grip and thumb placement. Captain Frank has been a firearms instructor for over a decade.

Ladies Beware Class 1, Group Bravo, proudly displaying their targets with Sheriff Patten and Deputies who were their firearms instructors.
Other firearms safety classes will be scheduled this year. We will post dates and times here as they become available.
