Instrutor Roll Call

I was just curious to find out how many iit's, red hats and shoot bosses were in the state of MO. From what I see MO is falling way behind in events on the event board. I know it's not a competition from state to state, its about waking people up to truth and history and marksmanship. We need to get busier on scheduling shoots, i'm new to this and want to get as much done as possible. We need to find more ranges or private property owners willing to build a back stop or somthing. Maybe people already are. I was mainly just wandering about the instructor corp numbers. Look forward to hearing from people.     Ben

Ben,

Thanks for starting this thread O0  One of the most effective ways to grow a state and get more shoots,hence more instructors, is for someone to take over the State Coordinator position.  With out some one to fill this  role, not much happens and the SC does not have to be of any particular grade.  Bluehat, IIT or master instructor is not important.  All that is required is to be motivated to grow the state.
"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value."   T Paine

That's four so far. Who else is ready to step up in Missouri?
Nearby border raiders are also welcome to chime in!

There have been 93 views on this thread, out of the 93 are there really only 3 instructors besides myself that are active. 

    Let me pose another question in case people keep checking back in: If you are reading this post and you know of a MO instructor or SB then please pm me there name so I can contact them to see if they are on board to get MO back in action.

I'm SBing the Houston AS but I live in KY. I am willing to do what I can, within reason, because of my location. Alkirer308 is the moving force behind the Houston shoot.

QuoteMutti, thanks for standing with MO also. Where are you and the others you mentioned located at?

We are in Southern Illinois (about 2.5 hours from Rosebud) - it's a long drive back and forth, but worth it!

There is the opportunity for KD to 400m - and Thursday has a big tractor/trailer we ride down on to check peoples targets.

I will be happy to work in MO.  I have recently talked with some IDPA friends at ARPC and they are interested in hosting so I will copy you on any further correspondence/make intro's when it reaches that point.  I tried to set up a shoot at Henges but they are not interested in allowing any semi-humanoid targets so unless we changed the red coat and AQT completely the state owned ranges seem to be out of the question.

Rosebud/wright city are definitely on my radar.

Unbridled Liberty

For Liberty, each Freeman Strives
As its a Gift of God
And for it willing yield their Lives
And Seal it with their Blood

Thrice happy they who thus resign
Into the peacefull Grave
Much better there, in Death Confin'd
Than a Surviving Slave

This Motto may adorn their Tombs,
(Let tyrants come and view)
"We rather seek these silent Rooms
Than live as Slaves to You"

Lemuel Haynes, 1775

imadentist, we would be glad to have you to help out.

UL, thanks for the support, we have a long way to go, but I think we can get back into action and get things moving.
