Waukesha Gun Show Jan 14-16

Old Glory!

We've got a table at the Bob and Rocco Gun Show in Waukesha, January 14-16.  

Had to pay $40 for it.
Guess that is the price of signing up at the last minute when all the 501c3 free tables have been spoken for. !@#)

Ah well, it will all be worth it.  

So who can help work the show and further Appleseed in WI?   We could break it down into manageable bits.  Feel free to volunteer for 2 or 3 segments if you can.  I'll spend the weekend in Waukesha if I have to, but it would be nice to spread the joy around. &)  

January 14
Friday:  SET UP sometime between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.   Whoever does this gets to set up and then cruise the show FREE - before the crowds!   ^-^
Friday:  Work the table (3:00-8:00 p.m.)      DEACON AND JRTURBO

January 15
Saturday:  9-12 work the table  KILOGULF AND OLD GLORY
12-5 work the table  KILOGULF AND OLD GLORY

January 16
Sunday:  9-12 work the table  INFIDEL
12-3 work the table  INFIDEL              
pack up

Any amount of time that you can contribute will be appreciated.  Even just a couple of hours.  Remember, if you work the table, you attend free.  

Respond on this thread if you will be able to help.  Let's get promoting WI!  There are so many Wisconsinites who have not been to an Appleseed yet.

"Folks, this Appleseed thing doesn't work if we get a patch and go home. It doesn't work if we shoot a Rifleman score and remember the good times we had out on the range. It only works if we take that 7th Step and spread the 'seed. HUZZAH!!!"  Slim

I have not sent in the registration fee yet.  I cannot set up on Friday as I have to work, so if no one else is interested in setting up, I'll cancel the table.

The DEACONATOR stepped up  O0

He's got the banner and poles/flags and is going to set up on Friday, and work the show Fri night.

Kilo-Gulf and I can do Saturday a.m.   

If anyone else would like to do a half day on Saturday, p.m., chime in here.

Infidel will work some hours on Sunday.  (morning and/or afternoon?? let us know Infidel)

BTW, Deacon could use some help on Friday night.  This is one of the busiest parts of a gun show.  Working a few hrs at a gun show is a good deal as you not only get to spend time with your fellow instructors, but also get in free.

The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value."   T Paine

Sounds good Old Glory!
JRTurbo will be there with me Friday.

Old Glory!

Thanks for stepping up DEACON, TURBO, INFIDEL, KILOGULF.  We could still use some more help at Waukesha this weekend January 14-16.  Sat and Sun.  Remember, you get in free and will get some time to cruise the show and visit all the booths.

Here is the schedule so far....

Its not fair to Infidel, him being kinda new around here, to have him work all day on Sunday by himself.

D-Fly and myself are teaching at the IBC, so we can't help out $$-0

Deacon said the show was busy Friday evening.   O0 

Good show today (Sat).  Lots of people.   I'd guesstimate 80% of them had never heard of Appleseed.  Now they know more.  JoeZ and the boys stopped by today, so I had a chance to walk around a bit while he worked the table.   

Infidel is on for Sunday and will pack up. 

Now, we need to get our WI Appleseeds listed.  I promised them all within 2-3 weeks there will be lots of dates and locations to choose from.
