Second Amendment Club of America hosted their first Women's Class for 2009. It was a free class and all women were encouraged to attend. President of the club John DiGaetano, said "The Ladies learned about the different types of handguns, and how to handle and clean them as well as the correct type of ammo to use." DiGaetano continued, " The ladies really enjoyed the target and self defense shooting. It was our largest class ever. we had expected about 15 Women but 39 women showed up, and that's great. I plan on having another class in a few months so I will start taking names now of any women who want to take this class, and all the classes are FREE."

Ladies, if you ever wanted to learn how to shoot a handgun go to www.secondamendmentclub.org

Couple shared piece of dream

Above, Derek Delgardo carries daughter Janise, 6, outside Union Missionary Baptist Church after the King Day celebration Monday. At top, keynote speaker Mildred Wilson, whose late husband was a Tuskegee Airman, presents a book to Alice Delgardo, head of the African American Club of West Pasco. In 1941, Elmer H. Wilson was drafted into an elite all-black unit of military pilots. The Tuskegee Airmen were praised for their work flying combat aircraft against the Nazis, but they faced discrimination at home. America's first black military airmen trained in a segregated unit, and after the war, they were excluded from World War II victory parades. Wilson's widow, 89-year-old Mildred Wilson of Tarpon Springs, said her husband never said much about the time he spent as a camera technician in the U.S. Army Air Corps. "They got called all kinds of names," Mildred Wilson said of the Tuskegee Airmen. "But it didn't bother (Elmer). That's what I see in Obama. He's cool and calm. He reminds me of the attitudes of the Tuskegee Airmen."
