The Delaware Youth Center is proud to partner with Weapon

Brand to bring a free Personal Safety & Threat Awareness Workshop to the community—an empowering, lecture-based session designed to help people of all ages recognize and avoid threats before they happen.

Location: Delaware Youth Center, 8 Creamery Road, Callicoon, NY

Date: Tuesday, July 1, 2025

Time: 6:00 PM (doors open at 5:30 PM)

As part of its mission to enhance quality of life through educational, recreational, and social events, the Delaware Youth Center is opening its doors to host this community safety event, open to both members and the general public.

Led by Weapon Brand, a nationally recognized self-defense and personal safety organization, this course provides proactive strategies for avoiding danger. Attendees will learn:

• Anti-stalking and predator avoidance tactics
• Situational awareness and behavior pattern recognition
• The “weapon mindset” to prevent violence before it starts

All ability levels are welcome—no physical activity required.

This event also marks Weapon Brand’s official debut in New York, expanding from its roots in Florida and Ohio. “We’re honored to partner with the Delaware Youth Center to bring Weapon Brand’s training to the Hudson Valley,” said Kevin Baker, local resident and Weapon Brand instructor. “This program is about building confidence, protecting our communities, and making safety accessible to everyone.”

BONUS:

Register in advance to receive a $25 gift card toward future training AND two entries into a giveaway for a free Weapon Brand class. Walk-ins will receive one entry.

Attendees will also get a sneak peek of Weapon Brand’s upcoming self-defense workshop coming soon to the Delaware Youth Center.

Let’s build safer, more aware communities—together. Bring a neighbor and join us!
