I signed up the other day, but have not received an email confirmation. I'm looking forward to learning from some new faces and wrapping up the rest of my requirements for the Red Hat. Shooting KD won't be bad, either.

I see you on the roster. I've just resent the ticket. Give me a PM and let me know whether or not you get it. It'll be sent to your gmail account.

See you there.

I'd like to come up, even if it's just for a day. I'll be flying into TX to stay with my Dad, who lives at Canyon Lake, for the month of September. This means I won't have a rifle but I'd be happy to assist as an instructor. My options are to daytrip, using my Dad's old truck (if it's running ok), rent a car for a couple of days or maybe even hitchhike with someone from the San Antonio area. If I could manage to find crash space, I might be willing to stay the weekend, depending on the logistics of getting there and back. If anyone from S.A. is going and wouldn't mind dropping by Sattler on the way, please PM me. It'd be awesome to meet some of my AS brethren from my home state.

If you'd like to drive to Lampasas from Canyon Lake (about 1.5-2.0 hrs) you can ride with me to Waco (about 2.0 hrs from Lampasas). And man do I know about old trucks - I cross my fingers every time I go somewhere more than an hour from home.

I'll camp out that weekend in Waco. I'm sure I can get some camping gear for you. I'll leave Friday and be back in Lampasas on Sunday evening.

Thanks for the offer Scuzzy. I think I'll take you up on the offer for camping gear at least. There's still time to figure out travel plans, even if I end up renting a car from New Braunfels. Look forward to seeing you there.

The Waco IBC is now official. It's scheduled for Sept 18-20, 2015.

September 18 is optional since that is a Friday. I'll be at the range Friday so I don't have to drive down early Saturday morning. If anybody plans on coming out Friday please let me know so I can setup a few things. Also there is camping available and a few RV hookups with electricity.

Register here:

http://www.eventbrite.com/e/waco-tx-appleseed-instructor-ibckd-september-18-20-2015-tickets-17784305336

This is event is free to instructors. Right now it has a capacity of 10. This is so that if more people need to register they can contact me to bump up the capacity. This is being done since if more than 10 people sign up we'll need to work on the KD range to add backers, etc.

There is a donate area on the registration page. If you can help that would be good since we are going to fly DrRich down from Wisconsin to do the event. If you can't help out that is OK too.

Please register early if you plan on coming so we'll know whether or not we have to buy supplies for the KD portion of the event and setup the KD range.
"The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have failed — where the government refuses to stand for reelection and silences those who protest; where courts have lost the courage to oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees. However improbable these contingencies may seem today, facing them unprepared is a mistake a free people get to make only once."

I'll arrive on Friday, and I'd like to camp on site. I can provide camping gear if someone needs something. I have room for a passenger too. I'm leaving from Ponder TX.

Gugisman -- If you still have room for a passenger, I'd really appreciate a lift.  I live in Fairview, but can have the wife drop me off at a place convenient to your route to Waco.  I'll take Friday off, so timing is very flexible.  Please let me know.

Thanks.

OK, it seems as though "the stars have aligned" and I am able to shoe-horn this in, sort of. Anybody willing to share a hotel room and split the cost? I haven't camped in many years, so I'm uncertain whether I have a serviceable tent, or not. Also, I am not sure what time I can get there on Friday, as I am flying back to Dallas on Friday. And I'll likely need time to pack my gear on Friday, as well. I'll round up what I can before heading to the airport in a few minutes. I find navigating this forum unwieldy, so if you wish to contact me, I'd prefer either email or phone:

Well, friends, I'm out for this weekend. My project took a hit, today, and I'm going to have to try and regain some lost ground over the weekend. I am extremely disappointed. I'll miss meeting some of the folks I don't know and spending time with some of you that I already know. Hopefully this won't be a one time opportunity.

I had an excellent time in TX this weekend, met men and women of outstanding character and sincerely appreciate the hospitality. Here are the group photos taken just a few hours ago near Crawford TX. Congrats, Michael Joe on earning the KD patch. Hope to see that red hat on your head next time around.

Good looking group!

Man - are we looking at the same pics? Them's some dog ugly people. Except for Rachel that is.

Actually some of the finest people I know. And thanks Three'oEight for the pics. I liked your IMC deal with the angles. And thanks Rich for coming down. Who would have thought Yankees was alright? It was a pleasure to meet you.

Gives me hope for this country.

While my boots are back in FL and my funny southern accent may come and go, I left my cowboy hat hanging on the wall at Canyon Lake along with a part of my soul. Thanks for making my Texas trip special and I look forward to coming back next year. Hope you enjoy the rest of these photos:
