There is something for everyone at a Friends of NRA banquet. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is brimming with excitement. Whether you’re keeping an eye on that unique item in the silent auction, trying your luck at the game tables, or just dining on some delicious food, you’ll be sure to have a good time. It’s a family-friendly event chock-full of everything from exclusive, limited edition merchandise, firearms, knives, art, jewelry, and more. Not to mention all the great people you’ll meet in the process!

Amongst the fun and fellowship, Friends of NRA banquets boil down to one goal – fund-raising for the future of the shooting sports. Since its inception in 1992, Friends of NRA has held over 15,000 events, reached over 2.8 million attendees and raised over $200 million for The NRA Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Each year, The NRA Foundation allocates half of all net proceeds to fund projects within the state in which the money was raised and uses the other half to fund similar projects with a national scope.

When: Saturday, June 6th
Time: 5:30 PM
Where: Santa Barbara Elks Lodge, 150 N. Kellogg, Goleta
Cost: $50 or see special packages here.

“The ultimate authority … resides in the people alone. [T]he advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation … forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any…”
– James Madison 1788

We are again starting a new political season. The unrelenting attacks on our freedom, on our economics, on our leadership in the world continue. Despite the frustrations that we have experienced from some of our unreliable and dishonest representatives in Washington, we cannot afford to let our guard down. This presidential run will make or break this country. If we don’t elect someone who will obey the constitution, I hate to think where that will lead.

While little Santa Barbara County will not be the make-or-break factor, there are small things you and I can do to help. Here are three upcoming events that will educate and encourage you and one will help defend you.

IMPORTANT – Time change for everyone who can make it:

Meet at 12:30 – De La Guerra Plaza
Monday, Jan. 19

If you cannot come early, plan to come at 1:30 anyway.

Free Press Rally!

Support News Press Telling the Truth

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or of prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people to peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
– Bill of Rights, 1st Amendment

Freedom of speech and the freedom of the press has been enshrined in our Constitution from the beginning. There are forces among us, who I shall call “anarchists,” who spit on the First Amendment, who think of nothing better to do than deface private property and call for the abandonment of our sovreignity. Have we learned nothing from Charlie Hebdo?

Join us for a rally for free speech, for support of the Santa Barbara News Press, for support of the Bill of Rights, and against those forces of political correctness that cannot seem to call a spade a spade. Illegal means illegal. Crossing our border without legal entry is a crime.

What: Rally for free speech, free press & support of SB News Press
When: Monday, January 19, MLK Day
Time: 1:30 PM
Place: De La Guerra Square – in front of News Press Office

Bring your signs – bring your friends! We need to show the dingbats who defaced the News Press building and those who support sovreign suicide that we are not going to stand by and let then destroy our country. See you there!
