It looks like a tough weekend for hotels. Only the Econo Lodge, on the information for a regular Appleseed, has any rooms left. They allow for up to 3 beds in a room, if anyone is interested in sharing a room. So, the operative question for me is if there is somewhere I can setup my cot or should I book a room?

We have permission to camp on site at NCCSC. You could also set up your cot in the clubhouse. There are no showers, but there is good indoor plumbing available at the clubhouse which will be our classroom also. Looking forward to seeing you.
Chainsaw is working on the admin side of things and will be getting more word out, but, this should take care of your immediate concern.

"A constitution is not the act of a government, but of a people constituting a government; and government without a constitution is power without a right. All power exercised over a nation, must have some beginning. It must be either delegated, or assumed. There are not other sources. All delegated power is trust, and all assumed power is usurpation. Time does not alter the nature and quality of either." ~ Thomas Paine

Lord make me fast and accurate. Let my aim be true, and my hands faster than those who would seek to destroy me.  Grant me victory over my foes, and those  that wish to do harm to me and mine. Let not my last thought be if I only had my Gun; and loard if today is truly the day that you take me home, let me die in a pile of empty brass.

Last evening, it occurred to me that when a defender of Liberty is called home, their load lands upon the shoulders of the defenders left behind. Just as the Founders did their duty for Liberty, every subsequent generation must continue their work lest Liberty perish. As there is no way for the remaining adults to take on the work of those that die, we must pass the ideals and duties on to the children. -PHenery

Let me know if you guys plan to go up the Friday before, and around what time you plan to be there, maybe we can all throw up our tents in the same area and make some s'mores =^) when it gets closer to the time we can exchange info.

I will be there Friday night probably between 9-10PM. I don't have a tent large enough for my cot at the moment... so unless the clubhouse it open Friday night I might have to learn how comfortable my Jeep is. :)

Who needs a cot, all you need is a sleeping bag and a pillow.

The link for the event says State laws to be aware of, then it just takes you to the attorney generals website. So.... What PA laws should we be aware of??

I would guess it is mostly so people know how to properly transport firearms if they are from out of state. You know some states have crazy laws, like cities of the first class which have different rules. ;)

Signed up.  Thanks.  If you need help with anything, let me know.  I'm not too far from there.

Oh, & sorry about the brainfart with the PM.  I saw "Lewistown", "instructors", "sharpen skills", etc & immediately thought of all the info & fun of KD Day there last year...  Heh!  Funny how the brain works, or at least how mine works, anyway...

I'm in Levittown, and plan to drive up sometime Friday. I can take three other people if they are close and want to meet either at my house or between my house the turnpike.  Any one interested  PM me between now and then and we can work out the details.

One thing not mentioned yet is food. Will some be provided (for some $) or should we plan to bring our own?

Hi George,

Thanks for the eventbright link.  DeckApe and I will be there.  We will get in late Friday as we will have to leave after he gets home from work.

Will there be time for live fire while we are there?  If so 22 or KD?

Thanks

While we did not specifically get the use of the ranges as part of the IBC, they are available til dusk on Saturday and Sunday. As long as we allow room for club members on the line you should be able to informally shoot. As Frank said all calibers are welcome, max range is 150 yards for rifle, and 25 and 50 for pistol.
No shooting Saturday before 9am or Sunday before 10am.
