 I was up at the range today (8-22.) I stopped by the Bargain Buys and put a flier on there bulletin board. Hopefully someone will see it. I also talked to a couple of folks at the range. One guy was shooting a M1 Garand. He talked about being on a army squad years ago shooting a M14. He seemed interested in Appleseed, we will see if he shows up.

Other than posting fliers in the gas stations I am not sure where else to put them. If anyone has any ideas let me know. I do seem to pass by there at least once a month. As stated in previous places, it would be nice to start to draw in some locals.

AFTERMATH

Good work!

I had at one point put a flyer up at every place with a bulletin board....  Don't know how many are left.
Perhaps the pawn shop - don't know how much draw we'd get.
Stop in the bar, order a Sam Adams.  Let 'em know it's the only beer aproved by the founding fathers.  >:D
See what kind of response you get. ;)

I've got listings on the community events sections of all the local newspaper websites I know of.
I've probed the local radio stations; only heard back from one, all they had for me was a price.  :'(

Maybe we're going about it wrong.  We're trying to draw them in.  Perhaps we should just drag them in. >:D
