Join the Inaugural GOA Leadership Summit in Knoxville: Advocacy, Industry Insights, and 2A Community Engagement”

Gun Owners of America is having their first-ever Gun Owners Advocacy and Leadership Summit (GOALS) in Knoxville, Tennessee, this weekend.

The action started on Thursday, with a full day of shooting just outside of Knoxville for industry insiders.

 
The two-day conference will include talks from prominent figures in the Second Amendment community, informative panel discussions, and a chance to interact with key industry leaders actively advocating for your rights.

Who’s going to GOALS in Knoxville? I wasn’t planning on it with the DNC next week, but someone talked me into tagging along.

It looks like @TWISTAgmg and the guys from TacticalTurkeys are making the trip from Chicago, so if you have anything interesting to look at, let me know.… pic.twitter.com/mPjCdGFycr

“As the senior policy advisor for Gun Owners of America and plaintiff in the landmark 2008 SCOTUS decision D.C. v Heller, I am excited to attend and speak at the inaugural GOALS conference in Knoxville, Tennessee.” –Dick Heller

The event is free for GOA members, and if you are not already a member, you can join online or at the door. 

The GOA Conference is at the Knoxville Convention Center, and it starts at 8 a.m. on Saturday. There will be 120,000 square feet packed with your favorite companies, like Brownell, Smith and Wesson. It’s a family-friendly event with two dedicated kids’ areas.

There will be panels and talks from your favorite content creators, such as John Lovell from the Warrior Poet Society and Brandon Herrera from TheAKGuy.

Delegate A.C. Cordoza said, “I am thrilled to collaborate with the Gun Owners of America in their support of the 2nd Amendment.” Delegate Cordoza is the only black, pro-2nd Amendment legislator in the entire Commonwealth of Virginia.”

One of the biggest questions at these shows is whether you can carry, and the answer is yes. After all, this is the Pro 2A state of Tennessee.
