TRAINING FACILITY
All of the TNVC Night Defender Course in 2015 will be hosted by Telluric Group, at their indoor low light/no light optimized facility. The training facility is located just off of I-95 at Exit 38 in Brunswick, GA. The street address is 136 Venture Drive, Brunswick, GA 31525.
Telluric Group’s indoor training facility has a live-fire range, an NLTA shoot house, a confidence course, a multimedia classroom, and more.
Key Features:
The classroom seats 12 students. Our lounge area can be converted to a classroom for larger classes (up to 36). Both classrooms are equipped with a projector, speakers, restrooms, and a coffee and water station.
The 25 yard live-fire range has 10 lanes with target retrievers. It's rated to for weapons up to .308.
Two-story shoothouse has roughly 1500 square feet of reconfigurable space that can be used for training with non-lethal training ammunition (NLTA).
The entire facility, including the live-fire range, is climate controlled.
Lighting conditions can be controlled throughout the facility- it is optimized for no/ low light training.
The classroom, range, and NLTA shoothouse are all in the same building, which means that transitions between briefings and exercises can be accomplished very quickly.
AIRPORTS
The Brunswick Golden Isles Airport (BQK), serviced by Delta, is only 3.5 miles away. The facility’s location also makes it accessible to airports in Jacksonville (JAX, 58 miles) and Savannah (SAV, 68 miles). Although airfare into Brunswick is slightly more expensive, we recommend it because it’s so convenient- it’s relatively small size makes parking, check-in, security, etc. relatively quick and simple.
Hotels
There are quite a few hotels that are convenient to our training facility. Several offer special rates to our students. There are also a number of other hotel options, including exclusive beach resorts, that are within 20 minutes of the facility. Ask for the Telluric Group training rate.
