On May 19, 2024, Vice President Vance Bjorklund and Directors Joe Mariani and Jim Mateer attended the HR 218 Qualification event. Jim Allen organized and ran the event. The shoot was held at the “Firing Line” indoor range. Approximately 120 retirees qualified from 1045 hours and 1130 hrs.
Another qualification session will be planned for early November of this year. The information about the dates will be posted on the LAPD Rotator in October
LARFPA directors who set up tables & an EZ up to facilitate signing up. Additionally, we provided coffee and donuts and some give-away stuff.
We all enjoyed seeing retired friends and partners and the social catching up that goes along with these events. There was a lot of, “What’s that guy’s name?” and “where did we work together?”
