Passing the word. Copy/paste as usual
We are confirmed for Saturday, January 15 at Manatee Gun Club in Myakka City, FL. The club is now under new management so there will be a few changes from previous shoots. Please do not arrive prior to 10:30am. Do not stop in the office, just follow the signs to the end of the road where our range is. Prior to January 15, please review and follow the 6 easy steps below.
Manatee Gun and Archery Club, 1805 Logue Rd, Myakka City, FL 34251
- The Gun Club has an online waiver that everyone will need to fill out. If you don’t fill this out online you’ll have to fill out a paper form when you get there which will be a bit of a pain for everyone.
2, Please forward an email to me (at borepatch at gmail dot com) listing your actual name, your blog name (if applicable), your email address, and how many are in your party (we collected some of this info previously but the royal scribes seem to have misplaced it). This needs to be done, even if you’ve left a comment that you will be attending because we have to verify everyone’s forms have or will be completed.
3. IMPORTANT: We need to have some NRA certified Range Safety Officers. If any of y’all are certified RSOs and would volunteer, please send me an email and attach your credentials so we can clear it with the club that we have the required RSOs.
4. When you get to the range, follow the signs that say “Borepatch Blogshoot” to the private range at the end of the road. We have that reserved just for us. Shooting stands are covered, and there are 180 yard rifle and 25 yard pistol ranges.
- We’re asking everyone for $20 to cover range costs. As usual, TQOTW will cater lunch which is included in the cost.
-
Lastly, bring whichever guns you want to. Last time we had enough firepower to invade Canada. We will have targets and stands, but the more targets, the merrier. Of course, bring eye and ear protection. Also, bring clips to attach the targets to the stands since no staples are allowed at the range.
Many of you may be interested to know, we have some different out of town visitors this time:
Co-blogger and my brother-from-another mother ASM826, down from North Carolina
Long time commenter Libertyman, down from New Hampshire
(tentatively) B from In The Middle Of The Right, from Indiana (I am looking into airports and will email you shortly)
We will miss you, Miguel.
Miguel,I haven’t contributed or sent you anything in quite some time. So, I thought it was about time. I receive a blog or newsletter from military.com every day. I just like reading up on what’s going on in the different branches of service. I, myself am an honorably discharged former US Marine. We don’t need to discuss how long ago, we’ll just leave it at, my discharge did not have any 21st century dates in it. HAHAHA. Anyway, I read this article today and for some reason I thought I needed to send this to you. It’s not important to me if you put it on your blog or not, the most important thing is I thought you might get a good laugh at the absurdity of what is happening. Anyway, take care and keep up the good work. Oh and Happy New Year.
