The Mingle: Openness to Experience, The personality trait that best reflects the lay concept of open-mindedness is called “openness to experience,” or simply “openness.” Open people tend to be intellectually curious, creative and imaginative.
Being open-minded is generally considered a positive quality. It is a necessary ability in order to think critically and rationally. If you are not open to other ideas and perspectives, it is difficult to see all of the factors that contribute to problems or come up with effective solutions.
The Mingle dedicates every event to all the ladies that come with an openness to experience.

We hope this 2 day VIP event will be a HIGHLIGHT of our guest's year! "The Mingle" is an INVITE ONLY weekend for women in the firearms industry. This Saturday and Sunday event has sponsors, guest speakers, door prizes, and guest instructors. You will attend both days, train in all three of our 3 hour blocks (live fire and presentations), lunch, snacks and water will be provided, and of course MINGLING!!! We will be lending a hand in helping women in the firearms industry gain knowledge and meet MORE ladies in the biz. What a fantastic opportunity to be able to "pick the brains" of the ones that paved the path before us and meet ladies who offer NEW ideas. The relationships we build here can strengthen our business and help reach personal goals, PLUS the knowledge bombs received can be passed onto others.
