At the invitation of the Liberty Link Foundation 360, Bartow, Florida, In-Gauge of Polk County, a private, non-profit organization, chartered by the National Rifle Association, conducted a free youth gun safety class, for the participants of Liberty Link 360’s summer youth program. The class was conducted Wednesday, July 24, 2024, at the Liberty Link Foundation 360, facility in Bartow, Florida.
Recognizing the alarming rise of accidental child shootings, the Liberty Link Foundation 360 invited In-Gauge of Polk County to educate the teenage participants of its summer youth program on gun safety.
Using an audio visual presentation and physical props In-Gauge emphasized the importance of gun safety.
The overall message was: If you are not authorized and trained in the use of a gun, don’t touch it and always assume that every gun is loaded.
At the completion of the presentation, each participant was issued with a gun safety lock to accompany their certificate of training.
