Learn About UsThe Creation of Lone Cedar Training Center
Lone Cedar Training Center was founded as a way to give back to the community by providing practical, real-world training in safe firearm handling and self-defense. Our goal has always been to ensure that those who choose to own firearms feel confident, responsible, and prepared. Over time, we expanded our offerings to include additional safety-focused courses such as CPR and First Aid—creating a well-rounded training center focused on preparedness, safety, and confidence in everyday life.
