Gun Safety Event & Summer Safety Rally

On June 7, partners in Buncombe County will host an event dedicated to raising awareness about gun safety, as part of the NC SAFE Week of Action. This event aims to bring the community together to promote safe firearm storage and educate the public, particularly youth, on the importance of gun safety.

From 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM, attendees can enjoy a variety of events, including live music, interactive activities, and educational sessions. 

This event is part of the NC SAFE (Secure All Firearms Effectively) initiative to promote safe firearm storage across North Carolina. The initiative emphasizes the need to reduce firearm-related accidents and deaths, especially among children and youth. By securing firearms effectively, we can prevent them from falling into the wrong hands and reduce the risk of tragic incidents.

The NC SAFE initiative provides resources and guidance on best practices for firearm storage, which is an essential aspect of responsible gun ownership.
