Hi

Folks if you ahvent been to this event before, you need to come out for a day of shooting and drooling and drooling and shooting, Its an awesome outing and you will get to see your California Shooting Communities at their best.

Question
Is this a red hat and above specific event? Or can orange hats participate?

Hi Penny's Dad!

All volunteers are welcome. Non-instructors are welcome to help out as well.

Thanks for asking the question, it is a good one.

22calgal?

We need at least 4 people per day. Please folks this will be the biggest promotion opportunity we will get a chance of attending. This will be the basis of attendance for the "Corona 210" in September. This will also be an effort to cross pollinate with Calguns and CRPA. Without volunteers this effort will fail. So who can help?

What collateral is there for Corona 210. I haven't seen any announcements of it anywhere on the forum (I may have missed it). Are there any posters, fliers, tri-folds for it? All I see on Eventbrite for the September Corona is the usual standard EIP etc.

Whats the promo messaging/branding for Corona 210 event? (I know the idea, fill 210 shooters on the line at Corona in september, whats the hook, what does the promo banner for it look like, how are we tying the chosen number of shooters to the AQT score, etc, is the sort of stuff I'm asking about).

Cheers

Hey Jackie,

I was on the original list for all 3 days (http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=20635.msg162553#msg162553)...don't forget to add me to the new list!

Looks like it will be a party!

I'm available for Friday the 3rd, but not until after 1. I get off work at 12. I will drive to work that day and get home sooner. Then hit the road.

See you there

Hey,

I'm glad we have so many people available that weekend, as it turns out there is also a Costa Mesa show that needs to be covered. Who is available to cover that? Perhaps we can schedule for both?

I committed to the sports fair when there were no other volunteers.  Now that we have more volunteers I wouldn't mind doing the Gun show.  Besides...I need to pick up more slings and swivels.

I guess we can divide up responsibilities on the conference call.

Mr Pete


I'll be at Raahauges' tomorrow (Thursday) around 12:30 to do preliminary setup and figure out what else we need.

On Friday I'm planning on arriving around 9:00am to finish setup.

Call me if anything comes up.

I picked up our 4 badges today.

Inventory is:
1 box old trifolds
2" stack of Dillons
2" stack of Swat reprints
New 8x5 banner

I'll have a flag stand with me as well as the remains of my shoot box.
I'll print the CA schedule on a couple of hundred blank fliers

Things that I don't have but would be nice:
Current trifolds
Dillons
Swat reprints
Flier stands
Rifle stand
More banners that will fit our 10x10 tent.

Mr Pete, I gave Savageshootr a box of event fliers for all of the ranges in SoCal. She also has 3 cases of the new CA trifolds. She has 4 flier stands and I think she has a rifle stand. She also said she would be bringing another banner. We are getting away from the SWAT Reprints, but hopefully if she has any of them or Dillons, she can bring them too.

I've been informed by the MOW that I am "not available" for Sat afternoon, so I will be there Sat am to about 11:30, then all day Sunday....I think I have some SWAT reprints left from gun shows.......


Seems like a good place to hand them out....do we have anymore of our local range schedules to distribute as well?
Need some of those for the area, & North County......

C-Ya tomorrow!!

Bob and SavageShootr resupplied us and I don't think we need anything.

Great day I'll post a few pics later.

Raahauge's Sports Show was fantastic!

We had all kinds of interest and tons of volunteers!
Friday:  Joseph, Dakota, Jeff, Shain, Richard and Cindy
Sat:  Sherri, Bob, Chris, Jackie, Ian, Phil and Jamie
Sun:  Jackie, Ian and Phil
(note:  I'm practicing using real names)

Much different crowd than the normal gun show people.  Most were families out for a day of fun.  Tons of interest in getting us to do more Library seeds and to speak to schools. 

Personal highlight of the show was watching people go crazy over Jamie.  I literally had one young lady scream and jump up and down when she saw him!  It was great meeting such a nice guy and I'm thankful that Appleseed has good people as representatives.

Thanks to everyone that came!  A special thanks to Ms Sherri who started off the day meek but in the end was poaching the interested women from me.  We all do our part and in the end I believe it was a great event.
