Once again we are in need of some volunteer help at the GOAL office, 37 Pierce St, Northboro.

Also: The world famous Topsfield Fair is just around the corner. As always GOAL will have a booth courtesy of the Essex County League of Sportsmen. This year the fair will be held from 9/30/11 - 10/10/11, open 10 am - 11 pm. GOAL usually sets up 4 hour shifts for volunteers.

Women On Target

The GOAL Foundation presents Women On Target events all over Massachusetts. If you are interested in a great day of fun and education for ladies only please contact us by clicking here!
These events are designed to introduce women ages 16 and beyond to the enjoyment of the shooting sports.
Guests will learn about firearm safety and proper shooting fundamentals in a non-competitive relaxed atmosphere.
Guests will also participate in a seminar on Massachusetts firearms law, and will receive a Massachusetts Basic Firearm Safety certificate allowing them to apply for a Firearms Identification Card or Class "A" or "B" License to Carry Firearms.
You do not need any previous firearms experience to participate in and have a great time at these seminars. Don't miss the fun, sign up today!
