On Wednesday (April 16, 2025), Lieutenant Geoff Crowe of the Washington Parish Sheriff’s Office
visited Enon Elementary School to teach firearms handling and safety to over 100 students. The presentation was part of Progressive Agriculture Safety Day, which included other short classes including ATV safety, common poisons, 911 procedures, and much more.
According to the National Institute of Health, approximately 5,000 juveniles are injured or killed by firearms each year. Classes like the one taught by Lt. Crowe aim to curb these numbers by teaching children the dangers of unsafe firearms storage, handling, and use.
Thanks to the students and staff at Enon Elementary for this fun-filled and educational day, and we look forward to seeing you next year.
