Ok guys in order for folks to start planning thier weekend of 9/19-20 here is a SCEHDULE OF EVENTS. This schedule is subject to change as the planning meetings continue, however we will try to keep to close to this as possible.

I think when you look this over you will see some great events, seminars and opportunites to learn, socilaize, and have some serious fun.

Again , not "ut it in the brochure final" but I want our members to have adequate time to plan and SEE ALL THE GREAT THINGS we already got lined up....Any questions can be sent to me via PM, or we can start another thread as this will likely go as a global announcement which will close it to comments unfortunately.

BTW, anyone asking "Where has RB been??" Now ya know...

, sorry it is a little hard to read, an Excel copy and paste..my time is limited for clean-up right now.

Re: !!SCHEDULE OF EVENTS!! - HPA 10th Aniiversary

I know the lake gets stocked with trout by the state...but I'll let the club guys answer that one.

Re: !!SCHEDULE OF EVENTS!! - HPA 10th Aniiversary

What exactly is the duck boat shoot?

They throw so many claybirds over a set amount of time 45 seconds I believe, you get two shells in your gun , then have to reload...all while in a rocking boat. I let the club guys clarify...but it sounded like a blast at the meeting.

I am thinking about starting thred on every event in here for questions and so guys can set-up teams etc...have not got to it yet.

Re: !!SCHEDULE OF EVENTS!! - HPA 10th Aniiversary

The rocking boat was actually part of another clay shoot I did, i could not remember if it was part of this shoot or not.

Perhaps, you can do a thread on the this shoot (and others all in a seperate thread) so guys can get familar with them and pick partners etc...I was going to but my notes on them are by memory.

Re: !!SCHEDULE OF EVENTS!! - HPA 10th Aniiversary

THANKS!! Yes it will be a blast, I am having an anxiety attack every once in awhile about it...LOL, but it will be a blast.

Hope to get a to-do list together and PM "the gang" tonight.

Re: !!SCHEDULE OF EVENTS!! - HPA 10th Aniiversary

Everyone at my work is buzzing about this event

Now that gets me excited!!!!

ENJOY IT!!!

On the prizes, we have had alot of items donated this week so we need to get thru it all likely on site, but my guess is at a minimum should we need too...we can take names and addresses for the winners and hook them up with gift cards or other prizes later, if not on site.

I know we have two Roscoby bow mounted/stablizer video cameras that have been waiting for an event just like this...

..

So the answer is YES...just don't ask me what yet.
