In our ever-changing, fast-paced society, we are constantly asking ourselves: “Is this worth my time?” Answering this question may involve some calculations involving money, but it can also be difficult to invest the time. And very often the answer comes down to, “What's in it for me?”
Arizona nonprofit RidersUSA invites you to join us for a few hours at our 11th Annual Second Amendment Celebration on February 17, 2024 in Phoenix.
This event is a family-friendly, festival-style outdoor event with great speakers, fun shopping booths, and delicious food trucks. The weather is always great and the arena is filled with historical monuments and statues. We are joined by hundreds of mothers, fathers, friends and neighbors who support freedom. They understand that community, networking, and preserving our precious and unique heritage of freedom are “in their best interest.” RidersUSA has assembled nearly 30 strong speakers from across the country who bring knowledge and inspiration to this ever-growing event. By spending a little time at this event, you can give hope to others by supporting and defending one of our fundamental rights, the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution: the right to keep and bear arms. You can give. Bring the kids! Our Junior Patriot Park is sponsored by the Great State Alliance. Pack your lawn chairs and sun hats, be inspired by our speakers, and get ready to continue doing good work to protect your right to protect yourself, your family, and your home. The event begins with a motorcycle parade at 10 a.m. and ends at 2 p.m., his day packed with fun activities.
RidersUSA is a true grassroots organization, and our rallies to celebrate and defend the Second Amendment are a grassroots effort. This means that many of our speakers come from all over the state, using their own budget and time. Alan Gottlieb, founder of the Second Amendment Foundation, travels annually from his home in Washington state to speak. Alan said, “This rally will be the most important gun rights event of the year in Arizona. We need your participation so our voices can be heard loud and clear to every member of Congress.” US Arizona House of Representatives Congressman Andy Biggs CD5 spoke and said, “Anti-gun fanatics are making a frontal attack on our God-given and Constitutionally protected Second Amendment gun rights. I don't accept these attacks, and neither should you.'' Jared Giannis, owner of the YouTube channel Guns and Gadgets, which has more than 650,000 subscribers, was in Johnson, Tennessee, to speak. He comes from the city and says this. That's why your local politicians need to hear your opinion on bills that affect your safety. ”
Jared is right. And while your time has great value in influencing your local legislators, it also motivates event sponsors to invest their time in producing this important event. Stop by their booth and thank them for your support of the Second Amendment. Byron Vaughn, manager of our Platinum Sponsor MMP Guns, said, “We've reached a point where we have to rely on ourselves to protect the Second Amendment, and this means coming together and dedicating our resources to… It comes through hiring and training.” Other sponsors include Midas Gold, Western Outdoor Times, Great State Alliance, Gunsite Academy and Chandler Custom Cycles. His GunFreedomRadio and AZFirearmsAuction, our partners for the past six years, will also benefit from your attendance to confirm the importance of partnering with us on the event. Owner Cheryl Todd says: “We all do normal things to keep our loved ones safe. We own fire extinguishers, use seat belts, and lock the doors to our homes. Owning a firearm is just another way to protect your loved ones.”
