Salute To Nick Provenzano Thursday, September 18th 5pm – 7:30pm


As Chairman of the Law & Justice Committee of the McHenry County Board, Nick Provenzano has led the fight in support of the 2nd Amendment and gun owner’s rights. His recent leadership to introduce the Pro 2nd Amendment Resolution led to a unanimous vote of support by all 24 county board members of our gun owners rights. Nick’s leadership came at a difficult time in Northern Illinois and came prior to the Supreme Court ruling upholding 2nd Amendment rights to individual citizens. Nick stood up to Chicago politicians and the Governor at a time when it wasn’t politically correct.

Now Nick needs our help as he faces an Anti-gun Democrat challenger for his County Board seat in the fall election. This opponent will surely use Nick’s defense of 2nd Amendment Rights as a tool to rally the Anti-gun radicals to defeat Nick in November. We can’t let that happen and now is our time to come together to help Nick’s campaign.

Please join with the Sportsman’s Association at a fundraising dinner on Nick’s behalf on September 18.

Be Careful, ya'll...

From the NW Daily Herald:

A 25-year-old man died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head on Thursday at an indoor shooting range at G.A.T. Guns, police said.

G.A.T. is run by good folks and is a great facility, I hope that they're alright and get through this...
