Ohio Appleseed,

I need your help.  We have a sold out shoot this coming weekend in Morengo, Ohio at Cardinal Shooting Center.  We have 33 pre-regs and climbing.  This is our first shoot at this range and I am currently signed up to be the Shoot Boss at this event. However, I have a pretty big problem.

Yesterday morning, I got a call from my sister that my mom was unresponsive when the nurses at the rehab center tried to wake her for breakfast.  Mom is currently in the hospital and has not been responsive for the last two days.  It is impossible to know right now where this will go but it does not look good.  There is a good chance that mom will go to hospice in the next day or two and from there, we have no idea how this will play out. 

As such, there is a very good chance that I will not be able to Shoot Boss the event and I need to make backup arrangements in case mom passes and I have to be with family.  Right now, we only have me, one Red Hat and two IIT's signed up to work the event. 

So, I would really appreciate it if a Shoot Boss could sign up to instruct as a back up in case I can not be there.  My Red Hat is good and I am sure that he could handle the event.  But it is hardly fair to dump a large, understaffed shoot at a new range onto a relatively new Red Hat. 

If I can run the shoot, I will but I can not guarantee I can be there.  So I need a plan B.  If I can be their, the backup is free to bail early for the trip home or if I know for sure I can make it, the backup will be free to skip the event totally if you want.  But I need to know we can cover the event, one way or another. 

Please PM me if you can help me with this problem.

FullMetalRifleman and I will be there.

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

Thanks from me as well Chuck. Corvette, so sorry to hear about your Mom.
I go to the Doctor on Friday which could determine if I might be able to help out at Morengo...or not.
Will advise later.

Anyone have Winterseed patches?

That drive was less than soothing.  ;)
