Shoot Like A Girl to Visit Bass Pro Shops in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Following Strong Turnout in Hamburg, National Tour Continues Pennsylvania Swing

SLG2, Inc., the outdoor industry's leading experiential marketing company, will bring its Shoot Like A Girl experience back to Bass Pro Shops in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, on July 18-19 as part of its 2026 Grand Safety Tour. The stop follows a successful weekend in nearby Hamburg, where 198 guests completed the mobile range experience while hundreds more explored interactive exhibits surrounding the trailer and participated in hands-on safety demonstrations.

"The enthusiasm we experienced in Hamburg reminded us why Pennsylvania has always been one of our favorite stops on tour," said Karen Butler, president of SLG2, Inc. "Having participants leave the trailer smiling, knowing their confidence has grown after spending time with our instructors, is what this program is all about. We can't wait to continue our Pennsylvania tour in Harrisburg this weekend, hear our guests' stories, and learn how we can help them take the first and/or next step in their outdoor journey."

Designed to be much more than a product showcase, the free event gives women, families, and outdoor enthusiasts the opportunity to learn new skills, gain confidence, and connect with industry experts in a fun, welcoming environment. From hands-on firearm and archery experiences to outdoor education and product demonstrations, guests will discover practical outdoor skills that help make time spent outdoors safer and more enjoyable.

The centerpiece of the experience is Shoot Like A Girl's fully enclosed semi-tractor-trailer mobile range. Inside the mobile range, guests aged 18 and older can participate in an instructor-led experience focused on safe firearm handling using a FATS by Inveris military-grade simulator that provides realistic feedback in a controlled environment.

Women can also participate in archery activities led by certified coaches, making the event an engaging and educational experience for the entire family. Youth and teens are encouraged to attend and take part in firearm safety discussions.

Outside the mobile range, attendees can explore the Shoot Like A Girl gun bar, featuring a variety of firearms and product demonstrations from some of the outdoor industry's leading brands. Attendees can also explore hands-on demonstrations regarding safe storage options, pepper spray with inert spray, knife sharpening, and much more. These practical skills help support safety, foster preparedness, and encourage confidence both in the field and at home. Guests will also get a hands-on opportunity to test optics, holsters, concealed carry handbags, and other outdoor accessories.

Women, men, and families of all experience levels are welcome, and no prior knowledge is required to participate. The event is free to attend, and all equipment will be provided on-site.
