GRNC SEMINAR, ANNUAL
MEETING & GET TOGETHER

Meet Sen. Ted Budd at the GRNC annual meeting!

Join us for GRNC’s 30th Anniversary!

Thanks to the generosity of Triangle Shooting Academy (TSA) and its world-class facility, GRNC will hold its 30th annual meeting, together with a legislative tactics seminar, on December 7, 2024 at Triangle Shooting Academy, 6501 Mt Herman Rd, Raleigh, NC 27617. Afterward, we will also have an informal get-together at Irish “gastropub” called Tra’li Brier Creek at 10370 Moncreiffe Rd., Raleigh, NC 27617. See details below.

Meet Senator Ted Budd!

We are happy to announce that Senator TED BUDD (GRNC ****), who is arguably the most pro-gun member of the U.S. Senate, has told us he will be attending the 1:00 PM GRNC annual meeting. We strongly suggest you attend and hear what Sen. Budd has to say about the upcoming session of a Congress soon to be under Republican control.

December 7th Agenda 

10:00 AM – 12:30 PM: “Guerilla Tactics for Gun Rights Warriors” legislative tactics seminar
1:00 PM – 2:30 PM: Grass Roots North Carolina 2024 Annual Meeting
2:30 PM – 3:00 PM: GRNC board of directors meeting
4:00 PM – 6:00 PM: GRNC Christmas party & informal get together at Tra’li Brier Creek

Guerilla Tactics for Gun Rights Warriors (10 AM-12:30 PM)

Learn how GRNC has won so many legislative battles in the 30 years of its existence. Taught by GRNC co-founder and president Paul Valone, you will learn why conventional lobbying fails by comparison to grass roots mobilization, and why everything you have heard about politics is conveniently wrong. We invite people interested in volunteering at the NC General Assembly with GRNC’s Legislative Action Team to join us, as well as anyone interested in learning better ways to defend your rights.

GRNC Legislative Action Team needs you! 

GRNC is looking for volunteers for our Legislative Action Team to help pass constitutional carry in the upcoming session of the General Assembly. In addition to performing a vital function, legislative team members will learn valuable skills useful in defending your freedom. Attending the legislative tactics seminar above is recommended, but not required. If you can serve, please contact the Director of Development: DirectorOfDevelopment@GRNC.org

Lunch break (12:30-1:00 PM)

For those staying for both events, we will take a lunch break from 12:30 to 1:00. Catered lunches will be available from TSA’s excellent café, Las Gringas.

2024 GRNC Annual Meeting (1:00-2:30 PM) 

The Grass Roots North Carolina Annual Meeting will be held on Saturday, December 7, 2024, at 1:00 PM at Triangle Shooting Academy, 6501 Mt Herman Rd, Raleigh, NC 27617. A short meeting of the board of directors will follow.

Christmas party & get together 

At 4:00 PM, GRNC will have an informal Christmas party and get together at an Irish “gastropub” called Tra’li Brier Creek at 10370 Moncreiffe Rd., Raleigh, NC 27617. If you plan to attend the party, please RSVP to DirectorOfDevelopment@GRNC.org to give us an idea how many are attending.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
ALERT WRITERS

We Need Alert Writers
In order to continue to offer these critical email alerts in a timely and effective fashion, GRNC needs more alert writers. If you have general writing ability, basic computer skills, a desire to defend the Bill of Rights, and a few hours a week, GRNC would love to bring you on board as an important member of our writing team. Note that a few hours a week, sometimes a little less, sometimes a little more, is a small tradeoff for the immense satisfaction you’ll feel after you have direct involvement in killing anti-gun bills, expanding gun rights, and stopping short the political careers of gun-grabbing legislators.

Contact Us
Please, we need you. If you feel at all called to pitch in and defend the Second Amendment, there is nothing better you could do than volunteer for North Carolina’s most effective, no-compromise gun rights organization, Grass Roots North Carolina. If interested, we’d love to hear from you, please email: alertwriter@grnc.org with the subject line: “Alert Writer Inquiry.” Thanks!
