Who wants to do some shooting Fri Afternoon?

I'm going to get there around 2:30, set up some backers and go.  Xeyed wants to shoot some AQT's to get his 210 and I got a new "toy" to run O0  If you have the time, come on out.  Maybe some friendly instructor competion. ;)

Also, what is the plan for meals?  Last time I was there we did our own lunch and there was a "community" dinner.  Is that the plan or is it bring your own?

I look forward to seeing a bunch of my friends I haven't seen in a while and new friends I will meet for the first time.

Little lost IIT here...

Well, my trip to Florida got scrubbed, so looks like I can make it after all.  Signing up with dispatch.

I'm feeling a bit underprepared.  Besides fresh instructor manual, good attitude, and survival gear for the hostile lands of Piru, what am I forgetting to bring?



A fresh notebook and pens. Other than that, you're set.

Since we did not figure out a menu and who should bring what, we should all plan on doing our own meals, for the most part anyway. We will all be eating at the same time. There is always the opportunity to share. Seems we do that anyway.

I will have a campstove... Is someone bringing a grill?

Hey, I'm a Fireman, not a Cop!  We go for ice cream, not donuts.

I'll have a stove.  The wife and kids might join us for the evening around the campfire.  Not sure about Friday shooting yet.

asminuteman, If you have excess water and diet pepsi/mt.dew or what have you. We wouldn't turn it down.

I am bringing some extra eggs and salad (BYO dressing)

I haven't decided what else we are bringing. No ice cream or donuts though...

So in all this organizing that's going on, nearly as long as the LTR thread, must be some complicated IBC this one, has anyone replied to this request?

I think I've only had a PM from DesertDog...

Quote from: bob 210 on March 01, 2010, 02:34:28 PM
OK folks, this IBC, besides being a great refresher for Shoot Boss's and Red Hats alike, is the perfect place to pick up supplies for the upcoming shoots, especially the April 19th weekend. So go through your supplies and make a list of the items you need. Get that list to either V or myself in a timely manner and we will do our best to make sure the supplies are at the IBC for you to pick up. See you in Piru! 

&)

See, now I'm catching Layloitis  :D

I have T-shirts, handouts for packets, chamber flags, trifolds (25,000). Hopefully Bob has RW Flags, hats.

Layloitis??

Dude....you -know- I use lots of facial expressions & body "english" (small cap, yes!) to get my point across in "real time"....emoticons are all we have to try to duplicate that here in "text".....

Hey, more importantly than 40 posts, we've had over 1100 reads/views so far!!

That's pretty awesome, too!! O0
Some AAR's don't even get 100 views, so how crazy cool is this IBC gonna be?? Can you imagine the AAR on it?? ++) :))

We've got DW & SS as the main "batters", DD will be there, I'm holding down the coat rack, and we have folks from a couple different states showing up for a -CALI IBC-.....and JB is missing it!! ++) :))

Dang, we should put together a care package for him....cheese, potato salad, and....what else is he allergic to out here? ::)
Oh, an antidote dosage of Bear Pit ribs! O0 ^-^ O0

Sorry all, this is, in honor of JB, a harmless post in an  effort to bump post counts.... **) ^:)^ **)

Oh, yeah...I am so trying out my new clip fed semi auto this weekend!!!

And I know just where to start.......

Of course, I -can- be bribed.....but I have my own Dr. Pepper, and tea, so, without donuts, you are toast, my friend!! And you'll have to arm wrestle Rocket man on that, so you may have to see how fast you run, powered by Poopsi.....Pepsi, how silly of me.... **) &) O0

BTW, in an appeal to return to the regular programming of this original point here, does everyone have their "BBB" sheets for 4/19 handouts?
I have about 3 inches worth in my office that really need a home, and I personally do not envision more then 50-60 shooters descending on Corona that weekend....I can share.....I will bring them along with, unless everyone else has their quota already......
Let me know.....

LLP, hold onto your BBB's and use them at other events. Fred has ok'd us passing them out at any Appleseed. Plus, V has boxes and boxes of BBB's and Iwant him to bring them to pass out to any SB's attending the IBC. I will also bring red sweatshirts, Instructor t-shirts, Orange Hats, RW flags, RWVA hats, chamber flags, event fliers, etc. If anybody else needs anything else in particular, let me know.

V

Ooops, I've been reading and handing out BBB's at any AS for ages... and yes I have boxes of 'em.

All those people looking for guidance on how to present the strikes... the bare bones facts and flow of the story is on the BBB's and doesn't take long to read or relay to someone. So if you know the story to that detail thats all that's needed as the framework on which you hang the particular personal stories needed to illustrate your points, Choice, Performance and One Person Does Make a Difference. Each time you tell the story you can use different people and vingettes to hang on the framework each time you tell it so it never gets stale for you - and therefore your listeners. The point of developing your historical knowledge in depth is so that you can do this pick and choosing to tailor your presentation to each crowd each time you do it. You don't try and cram everything you know into the story every time.

Ooops, thread hijack. Got carried away there. Reading a BBB will do that to ya. You do have one framed in your house don't you?

Cheers
Phil

Hey V,

<---poor boy here

BBB?  I most likely know...just an odd acronym to me
Bloody British Butchery, the headline on the reproductions of the Coffin Broadsheets which we read from and hand out to those who promise to "put under glass or display" in their homes so that "the Forty Deceased Worthies" are never forgotten...

It gives people the "Cliff Notes" of The Story which we ask them to carry forth in their Seventh Stepping... I always use it in my benedictions - unless I forget :(

Oh and by the way, kudos for asking, everyone else just PM'd me  O0

LayloPro

Heh!

Not your average "Triple Hay" (AAA), or "AA", or just "A"....but "BBB".....

Kinda like a really not so great bond rating..... :-[ :P :-\

Bob, Roger that! I will begin handing these out @ AS's far & wide....I thought Fred was keeping our printing costs down, but this one does make a lot of sense to keep handing out.....

For all those folks who think we're still fighting with smooth bore muskets...... ~~:) &)

This is gonna be a fun IBC, I can just feel it!!

I'm excited, and I'm just holding the coat rack....are you guys excited??

If you aren't now, you will be about 0800 Sat am!! O0 ^:)^ O0  ^:)^ O0 ..:..

See ya there!!

FWIW, the AS Instructor Manual says "BBB" == "Bail, Baby, Bail!"

Maybe the MIs should PM after RTFM so we can all SOMSOM, but I'll go along with whatever the SB or SC has to say on the subject.   O0
