I would like to share a letter with you that I received from Peter Juknelis, Vice President of\u00a0 Maryland Law Enforcement Officers, Inc.<\/p>\n
Peter’s letter speaks loud and clear to the goals and purposes of Front Sight.<\/p>\n
As Front Sight continues its expansion and development, we strive to ensure that every family in America has the same opportunity to learn, grow, and bond as the Juknelis Family did during a
\nweekend at Front Sight.<\/p>\n
Ignatius Piazza<\/p>\n
Dear Dr. Piazza,<\/p>\n
Back in April, my entire family came to Front Sight for our vacation.\u00a0 My parents, my two brothers, my sister-in-law, my wife, my three children, and I had the greatest vacation we’ve EVER had!\u00a0 My brother and his wife, who are First Family members, gave us certificates as gifts.<\/p>\n
I’ve had over seven years of law enforcement firearms training through my job with the Maryland Division of Correction.\u00a0 I came to Front Sight with the hopes of honing the shooting skills that
\nI already had.\u00a0 What an awakening! I found that “I didn’t know what I didn’t know”.\u00a0 In just two days, I watched years of bad habits be replaced with sharp, deliberate actions which had
\nindisputable results.\u00a0 Front Sight should set the standard for ALL law enforcement training.<\/p>\nMy wife and seventeen-year-old stepson, who have had very limited exposure to firearms, came to Front Sight as “clean slates”.\u00a0 Unlike myself, they had no bad habits to undo. They came completely open-minded.\u00a0 The results left me speechless (and a little bit envious).\u00a0 In two days, they were placing precision shots on the targets.\u00a0 AMAZING!<\/p>\n
My fourteen-year-old stepdaughter and my six-year-old son opted for the 2-day youth safety and 2-day children’s safety courses. Once again, Front Sight left me astounded.\u00a0 Your incredible
\nyouth training staff gave my children the knowledge, skills, and confidence to do things that I never would have dreamed they’d do.\u00a0 When I watched my reserved six-year-old son be hoisted to
\nthe top of the rope swing, before he released himself into a swinging free-fall, I was the proudest dad alive!\u00a0 I couldn’t have talked him into that for a million bucks!\u00a0 I’ve never seen a bigger smile on his face, or a deeper sense of pride in him, ever.<\/p>\nAbout a week after we returned home, he was at his swimming lesson, and was asked to jump from the diving board for the first time.\u00a0 He did it with ease.\u00a0 When he got home that night, he called my mom, who also attended Front Sight, to tell her the news.\u00a0 My mom asked him, “Weren’t you afraid?” He laughed and said, “C’mon, Gram, I’m Front Sight trained!”<\/p>\n
As for my step daughter, she had an absolute blast.\u00a0 The courses challenged her to push herself both mentally and physically, all while having a fantastic time.\u00a0 I asked her to tell me whether
\nor not the course was worth the cost. Without hesitation, she said, “Without a doubt!”\u00a0 You should have heard her raving about Front Sight to her friends.\u00a0 She wants to come back and take the
\nadvanced ropes course next.<\/p>\nI have only two regrets about my trip to Front Sight.\u00a0 First, I wish that I had taken the 4-day defensive handgun course instead of the 2-day.\u00a0 Second, I wish that I had gotten to meet you, Dr.
\nPiazza.\u00a0 Maybe next time.\u00a0 My brother, Andy, and his wife, Mei, speak very highly of you.<\/p>\nI can’t say enough about Front Sight’s programs, training staff, members, or facilities.\u00a0 I haven’t shut up about the place since I’ve been home.\u00a0 Front Sight must be experienced to be believed!
\nIt is the ULTIMATE family vacation destination. My family and I can’t wait to go again.\u00a0 We shall return! THANK YOU!\u00a0 THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!!<\/p>\nSincerely,<\/p>\n
