January, 2011 NRA Cert Instructor Course - upstate NY

[nyrasgt]

Ladies and Gentlemen,
   More information on the planned NRA Cert Instructor class somewhere in or near Glens Falls, NY, probably Jan 7(a Fri - night), Sat/Sun 8th and 9th.  The NRA Training Counselor is Jim Tucker, and the cost will be $90.  In fairness, the class is of less use now that Ruger has recognized Appleseed Instructors as eligible to participate in the Instructor Purchase Program @ 1/3 off MSRP; my plan is to get Smith and Wesson and Henry to follow suit.
  Anyway, class will be 2 days (and some range time, probably @ Hudson Falls Fish and Game Club, and, of course, a range fee) and Friday night.  I need to get some kind of idea of how many individuals would be interested in taking the class...there is also the potential for a Pistol Instructor's class as well, also likely in the winter.
Thanks, rsvp, and excelsior,
madMark

..Is this for the Rifle Instructor credentials?

NRA Training Counselors can teach pretty much any Cert Instr course; we are looking at, probably, one of each -- Rifle and Pistol...separately.
At Jim Tucker's (the NRA TC) request, I'm trying to get a handle on how many folks, Appleseed or otherwise, NYS or otherwise (Vt, NH, Mass, etc.),
would be interested in EITHER the Rifle or Pistol class.  Likely dates:  Friday evening, 7 Jan, and Sat/Sun Jan 8 and 9 in Glens Falls area, with likely range time @ Hudson Falls F&G (probable $10 range fee) one of those days.  I'm told cost will be $90...
  Anyone interested - pm/email me.
Thanks, and excelsior,
