WELCOME TO THE SISTERHOOD

Shotgun Sisters was founded in 2015 by Tara Lane, a sporting clays shooter and business development professional in the CRE/AEC industry. Sporting clay shoots and tournaments are common business development opportunities in the AEC industry and often industry women aren’t comfortable or able to participate because they lack familiarity with shooting, handling guns, and the sport itself. The group meets monthly and seasoned members and trained instructors offer assistance and instruction as needed, so all skill levels are welcome.

Shotgun Sisters provides a comfortable environment for women to shoot; from beginners developing a comfort level to experienced shooters sharpening their skills. This enables them to be on a level playing field with their male colleagues and competitors as well. After the shoot, everyone stays to eat, celebrate, laugh, and network. The result is an exceptional group of industry professionals, sharing a common interest, networking with each other, developing business opportunities, professional relationships, and friendships.

The organization also holds other events throughout the year, one of which is the Shotgun Sisters Foundation, Inc. Annual Charity Gala which is a 501(c)3 non-profit foundation/event. Proceeds benefit BeLoved which assists victims of forced sex trafficking.  The organization’s Core Values are Targeted Networking, Empowerment and Charity.
