We have a student from West VA signed up for Black Creek on 3/29-30. His name is Bruce, and he's from West Virginia. He wants to talk about holding a shoot in his state, and raised the question on the Rimfire Central forum.

West Virginia appears to be struggling right now.  I see no shoots scheduled.  Border raiding  may be his best bet for the moment.  He is welcome here and perhaps we can encourage WV to greater activity.  Depending on where he lives, Ky. Pa. Md. and Oh. are additional options.  If some range were to open up further west, in Virginia, we might serve that community even better.

There will be an IBC in Western PA. 

I invite any and all who would like to come.  Especially those from WV who would like to get the program going.  We are willing to come down and help get things started.  Please come up and meet us and get up to speed!

Details are on the PA board.

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

For Liberty, each Freeman Strives
As its a Gift of God
And for it willing yield their Lives
And Seal it with their Blood

Thrice happy they who thus resign
Into the peacefull Grave
Much better there, in Death Confin'd
Than a Surviving Slave

This Motto may adorn their Tombs,
(Let tyrants come and view)
"We rather seek these silent Rooms
Than live as Slaves to You"

Lemuel Haynes, 1775

Someone should talk to Jeff (WVMMFALCON). He is an active instructor in the state and was trying to schedule shoots. Maybe he needs help. Maybe he has had problems.

"There's a great deal of talk about loyalty from the bottom to the top. Loyalty from the top down is even more necessary and is much less prevalent. One of the most frequently noted characteristics of great men who have remained great is loyalty to their subordinates."

I just sent him an invitation to the IBC  I hope he comes and brings a friend or two.  The crew from western PA is willing to go down and help out.
