Special Events and Activities

The RSO courses provided by the IHEIA were a nice success, and the Iowa DNR is now taking over that type of training.  So, if you want to be a certified Range Safety Officer, contact the DNR for further information. 

The IHEIA now has a new offer to members only.  

That is for anyone interested, to become an NRA Certified Shotgun Instructor.  This is provided at cost for the members of the IHEIA, which is over a $150 savings from the regular prices.   

Not a member?   Well, just download a copy of the Membership Application from this site, then send it, (along with $10)  to the address provided on the application and you will be eligible for any and all of the activities and training to be provided by the IHEIA.  Once the NRA Certified Shotgun Instructor course has filled the demand, the next NRA Certified Courses on the board are for Rifle and Pistol.  Then if there is enough demand, we may even throw in some Certified Reloading courses as well, for both shotshell and metallic cartridge ammunition.  We have NRA Certified personnel on the board and in the membership that are willing to help put on these courses at these special prices for members only.      

There is an Outdoor Expo this September 25th & 26th, located at the Des Moines Water Works Park.  
        This park is located at 4343 George Flagg Parkway.
