I spoke with Waylan Moore tonight at the show.

He is having Kristine (Club Secretary) fill out the paperwork.
I let him know it is urgent so we can begin filling registration spots out.

I didn't see Kristine to speak to her myself.

[SamD]

Thanks muchly for getting on there JeremyF
If you can do a followup that would be great.
we need it so we can start advertising.
want it to be a success and getting the word out helps a lot.

Wish it were done, then we could be passing out flyers at the show this weekend.

I will. I want this just as much as you fine folks.

It has been frustrating  talking to people about this, seeing the interest, and then being unable to sign them up!

[ballistic_ken]

I'll be at the local show tomorrow and Sunday, so I will light fires under the apropriate people if I see them.

[ballistic_ken]

Didn't run into any SJWF big wigs, so not sure how that end is going.

I did (My daughter actually) hand out all of the brochures I had.  There seems to be a huge interest, just got to get it together.

How do I get more of the brochures?

[JeremyF]

Ok.

Email christine_maestas@hotmail.com

She will do her best to have it back tonight if she recieves it in a timely manner.

ETA: Blackberry posting aint all its cracked up to be!
If anyone tried the email address, try it again. Should work.

I don't check the Appleseed forum every day...just foudn this during my lunch time today.  I went ahead and forwarded the application to Christine at 13:25, Tuesday, 16 February.  We'll see what happens now.  Mr. Moore NEVER returned an email after two weeks of trying.

David, I did try to call you direct.

No worries. I am at the general meeting right now.

No excuses now! I will leave with a signed apication.

[SamD]

Thanks Jeremy 

[JeremyF]

Ok. I have the application in hand!

I also stood before the group and pitched the general idea of appleseed.
It looks like an entire boy scout troop is needing their badges and wants to participate. 

I will have the application to Dave first thing in the morning!

[ballistic_ken]

Dang, I forgot today was the meeting.

Good work Jeremy, at least one of us is on top of things.

Sam, any chance you can email me a link as soon as it happens? I have a lot of people wanting to sign up!

BallisticKen, you should drop into AR15.com's hometown forum. Heck, as far as that goes, all of you are welcome. It has become a lot more active as of late.
Don't mind the shenanigans.   

[SamD]

Will do. soon as I see it come up.

[SamD]

OK it's up
Sam

[JeremyF]

Any word on registration numbers?

[SamD]

Not yet.
Totals are updated on Tuesdays and we haven't had it up for one yet.
Wouldn't matter one bit, if only 1 registers we will come (won't be happy but that will be one very educated student)

Hit up the club members to send their wives and kids.   We'll send them home all ready to go.  Then pappy will get upset and sheepish and come on the next go.


Sam.

[ballistic_ken]

If I got the shoot a little radio play how would you want it worded?  Anything I should/shouldn't mention?

[SamD]

The words to use are
American Heritage
Teaching
fundamentals
rifle

The words not to use are
Training
Weapon
basic

Attached is a press release.

[ballistic_ken]

I saw in a different thread that there will be another shoot on 4/22 here in Farmington.  Any more info?

[SamD]

Not much chance of a Thursday shoot anywhere Ken.

Why the poor turnout last go?

Sam

[ballistic_ken]

I may have misread the other thread.  I hope we can get another one going.

I had previous plans, family reunion, for the SJWF shoot.

If I can, I'll travel to make a shoot.  I'm going back on summer schedule and will have a lot more weekends off.

Other than yourself, any idea why the turnout was so low?

I'm not sure.  I handed out the fliers and talked it up hard, even got mention on the radio.  everyone seemed interested.  I wonder if we were "preaching to the choir" and not getting to the right audience.  The timing with SJWF was not ideal either.  Everything happened real fast with not a lot of time between set up and actual shoot.  I think we need to revisit SJWF and schedule another shoot for fall.

I still firmly believe that this area needs and can support a minimum of 4 shoots a year.  We just need to 1) reach more people and 2)  have more advance time to get the word out.

That's my diagnosis anyway.
