Washington, D.C. – Gun Owners of America (GOA) is proud to announce the 2A Defender Student Luncheon, hosted by Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) and sponsored by the Leadership Institute, as part of the 2025 Gun Owners Advocacy and Leadership Summit (GOALS). The event will be held on Saturday, August 9th at 12:00 PM in the Marriott Ballroom in Knoxville, Tennessee.
