Title: Des Moines Gun Show June 20-22
Post by: Twineagles on April 20, 2014, 11:27:45 AM
We are setting up again for the Des Moines gun Show in June. We could use some fresh faces to help out at the table. Bryce our silver tongue devil and main table support may not be available. This is one of our best ways to get the word out for our program in Iowa. Shooters from all over IA attend the DSM show.

Who is available for some table time?

If you'll allow an enthusiastic cook behind the table, I should be able to cover some of the times.

Reload,
You are one dangerous cook!  The AQT has just not realized it yet.  You're help will be much appreciated.

We could still use some help! Festus will be there on Friday to set up. A half a day shift would always help out too. The DSM shows draw shooters from all over the state and is resonsible for finding us new locations too.

My son and I can help on Sunday, if Stan wants company.  We can be there at 9am and stay until 2pm-ish.

Sorry guys, my plans changed.  Going to be out of State that day traveling on the way back to Iowa.  I'm not going to make the Des Moines Gun Show.

Show hours are Fri 5-9 Sat 9-5 & Sun 9-3.  It sounds like Sunday is covered.  I can help Friday with setup and the show.  Will we have vendor passes at the door, or how do we get in?

Who is scheduled for Saturday?  Normally Saturday morning is the big rush (early ammo shoppers?), so I can help out then if needed.

Saturday would be great. I am working out my schedule to see if I can be there Saturday too.

We could use some more help. Saturday is our annual kids fishing day for Madison County Sportsmen's Club and I will be tied up with that. I may be able to get out Sunday afternoon.

Friday and Saturday were good days at the show.  Lots of interaction and several people indicated they would be signing up for an event.  Many seemed interested in the Winterset shoots.  In the future we need go have more supplies available to pass out to those who are interested.

The "Riflemans Quarter Mile" flier was a great intro for those passing by the table.  I ran out of those quickly on Saturday.

I missed that.
What's it?

I had to dig around to find one at home, but there was one included in the packet that BuzzG handed out at the last shoot I attended.  Grey paper with "The Rifleman's Quarter Mile" as header.  Has sections on Target Detection, Range Estimation, Trajectory, Come Ups, etc.

Worked great at the gun show as the folks passing by were all shooters and were more interested in taking that than a trifold.
