Desert Patriot Camp & Carry - September 27th - 28th

This event will be the first of its kind for Desert Patriot Training. This event is limited to 12 spots located in Dragoon, AZ. Dragoon is located in Cochise County approximately 17 miles northeast of Benson and 57 miles southeast of Tucson. The Dragoon Mountains are a distinctive small range with the highest peak at 7,519 feet. The name originates from the 3rd U.S. Cavalry Dragoons who battled in the area. They established posts around 1856. The Chiricahua Apaches had roamed this area traditionally. Apache Warrior Chief Cochise, in particular, is known for holding camp here. Also his final hidden resting place. Many events of Old West historical note occurred in these boulderous ridges. One glaring was slaughters at the Dragoon Springs Butterfield Stage Station. A marker tells its story.

CAMP & CARRY DETAILS:

2 Days of Firearm Training:

Day one of training will focus on the basics of handling fi****ms, establishing well-rounded fundamentals, and getting shots on target while doing a lot of dry firing drills from holsters with movement. Day 2 will focus on live fire when moving and drawing from the holster. Must bring a holster, belt, firearm, 200 rounds of ammunition, and ear & eye protection. (If you are flying in or need help with obtaining a firearm and ammunition please reach out as we can see what we can supply to you for an additional cost.)

Overlanding:

We will be camping one night in Coronado National Forest in the Dragoon Mountains. We will explore some easy trails that are 2W drive-friendly throughout Cochise Stronghold and Dragoon that have rich ecosystems and show the beauty of Arizona. Bring a tent, sleeping bags, water, snacks, and whatever else you want for camping. Camping fees & main meals will be covered. If you have food allergies, please let us know as soon as possible.

Wellness:

We will start the day with a healthy campfire breakfast followed by reconnecting with nature by doing an easy hike throughout Cochise Stronghold before we drive to the range. After the range, we will go on to explore Dragoon’s rich history at the Dragoon Springs Stage Station, Texas Canyon, and surrounding areas. Arizona is HOT although in September it will be cooling down, especially at night. We encourage you to bring different clothing to layer. Water is critical. We will supply water but encourage you to also bring hydration packs.

Campfire Ministry:

At night we will be settling down with a campfire dinner and ministry. We will be discussing scripture, purpose, weakness, and strength. We encourage you to bring your bibles if you have one but they will also be provided.

Connections:

Build connections and memories that will last a lifetime.

Setting up for tomorrows Free Child/Parent Course for Firearm Safety and tomorrow's CCW course. Unfortunately we have a TON of seats that haven't been filled and even complaints about the event. It's disheartening to see such a good event with free information not get the recognition it deserves BUT I will keep striving. One thing I'm not afraid of is some bully and confrontation. Hope to see you all there. The child course is at 10 am and CCW is at 4 $35 at the door or online.
