I will be there for this one. Saturday 1/2 day, Sunday all day. See you all then.

edit: looks like this was also posted on Northeastshooters @ http://www.northeastshooters.com/vbulletin/threads/120348-Two-Connecticut-Appleseeds-February-26-27-2011-Colebrook-and-Chaplin

Alright, we're still show Chaplin but were in Lebanon in 2 weeks.

Filling the Line efforts - emailed out everyone and I mean everyone in my personal email address book about the shoot.

Sent an email to everyone who's ever taken my pistol course for the past 4 years as well as every customer who's email I have (I also plan on capturing more of this info as we go forward to increase my audience).

Coalition of CT Sportsman just sent out their email alert of upcoming events and it had the blurb for this shoot on it.

Received and email from one of the gunsmiths I work with (I've been 7th stepping him for a couple years - I'll get him one day ^-^) and he 7th stepped 2 Willimantic Peace Officers, passed along their emails as they are VERY interested and I just fired off an email to them.

Lastly, eventbrite is show "22" tickets left for this event.  Since we can accommodate 35 at the shoots original host range, but only 27 at the substitute Host Range, I'm not sure if we have only 5 registered or do we have 13 registered???? #)

Either way, we got us another Appleseed in Lebanon, maybe this one will be a Winterseed but the weather has to be nasty not just wintertime ^:)^

Lebanon is officially listed as 25 spots as that was what was submitted in the Host Range App and EIP. If you think we can fit 27, we can bump it up by 2. Anyway, if eventbrite is showing 22, we have 3 registered for this event.

I'm delusional......thought it was 27 on the Host App and I filled it out - did I say I was delusional?

Anyhow I really think the max would be 24 this time of year with the snow and the fact that I can only recover enough target line out of my snow collapsed shed to post 24 target backers......

3 is fine, It's an Appleseed if only 1 shows up!

Let's leave it at 25. I would welcome that problem at this particular event with open arms.

 Al though I was scheduled for Chaplin I will be at this shoot.
