Celebration—a cherished Labor Day tradition honoring the visionaries whose dedication helped build America’s Greatest Shooting Destination.

This year, our celebration takes on even greater meaning as we commemorate 250 Years of American Freedom under the theme “A Legacy Worth Preserving.” Together, we will celebrate the people, traditions, and values that have shaped both our nation and the NRA Whittington Center.

In honor of this historic milestone, we are also proud to offer our limited-time ~A Legacy Worth Preserving~ Sponsor Program, providing supporters with a unique opportunity to help preserve the future of the NRA Whittington Center while commemorating America’s 250th Anniversary. Limited special edition firearms available during this limited-time offer! 

The Annual Donor Appreciation Weekend is more than an event—it is a homecoming for those who helped build the NRA Whittington Center, a celebration of 250 years of American freedom, and a reminder that the legacy we preserve today will inspire future generations tomorrow.

Celebrate 250 Years of American Freedom

Support the NRA Whittington Center through our ~A Legacy Worth Preserving~ Sponsor Program and help preserve shooting sports, youth education, and outdoor traditions for future generations.
