Well things are looking up. I am still waiting for everyone to sign up. We have done quite a few remodeling projects this winter. We redid an upgrade to our pulley system on our rope resets. We rebuilt the bench behind the firing line. About 24 feet of it is weather proof. David built 11 benches so most of us don't have to shoot from the ground. We plan to build more when the material becomes available. We are in the process of redesigning the bigbore chickens and the halfsized chickens and pigs to minmize breakdowns. We also fixed the field pistol chickens.

We have had several items donated for door prizes.
Brownells 1 shooters bag
Sinclair 2 $25.00 gift certificates and 25 $10.00 certificates
Lee 1 Modern Reloading 2nd edition
Redding 2 50% off certificates

Greg, I want to personally thank you and David for making this match a reality. I will be unable to attend, but will be with all of you in spirit !! -- Philip Braud - Sorrento, LA IHMSA #13794

Got an email today from a Canadien shooter wanting information. He said he is doing the ATF paperwork to come into the country now.

Edit: After a few emails back and forth. The gentleman from Canada has room reservations. He then is going to TUSCO for their May match.
He has now signed up for 10 guns.

I now have heard from a Texas shooter. His dad lives in New York, they are considering meeting at our match and shooting together. They live about equidistance from our range.

A little over 30 days to the match. Get your times in. We are almost done with all the improvements. Where else can you shoot a 60 round match of all the disciplines and get hummm babies from me .

States represented so far. Ky, Il, Oh, Va, N.C., S.C., Ga, N.Y., Tx and Ontario Canada.

Hi Greg,

The Durrants are from Toronto Canada. Looks like it is shaping up to a fantastic shoot. Many thanks to you and crew for putting on this match. We are all looking forward to it.

Sorry meant Ontario, Toronto is a city. Ontario is the province.

Thanks Jim. I fixed it. Don.t want to start a border war between Ontario and Quebec.

24 days until the start of festivities. A lot of work, money and time has gone into this. If you live close enough to come you should make the trip. Spread the word at your local matches. Come enjoy our hospitality.
