FWIW,
There's a covered, open air pavillion on the other side of the pistol range (by the skeet range). I think it's free if a group needs it. I'll volunteer to help, but I can't cook worth a darn. LOL.

With the way they're set up, I bet it would be doable to have catering in the parking lot at Elm Fork. I don't have an opinion on it one way or another or experience with having an event catered. Anyone else have input on the option?

In the spirit of cooperation and teamwork, will this be open to our friends from other parts of the state? You know, those Southerners down around Houston and such? :biggrinjester: :biggrinjester: :biggrinjester:

I'm good for 4-30. I've got to get used to this going to a public range thing, you know having to follow other people's rules and such. :evil2:

If there are enough people who want a different date, we can look at other options.

If you want the option of a date other than those listed, choose the last option about wanting something other than Saturdays. Read that to be saying, "I would like another option, please." I can edit the poll, but then all the current votes disappear so I'll wait to edit it until a consensus is forming. If a good number of people choose the last option, we can reconsider dates.

Yes! Anyone is welcome! DFW area refers to the location, not to a restriction on attendees. Once we establish date and location and food source, I'll change the poll to get a head count. You can see what the head count poll will look like by checking out the Fall 2010 DFW Get Together thread.

As of right now any of those dates look doable. Paw-Paw a real dedicated shooter would be ready to go after a good nights sleep. :mrgreen:

Thanks for taking the bullheaded ones by the horns Hoi. And yes what did you settle on for your new friend?

I'll PM anyone who is interested in my choice. I'm not up to public debate on the topic. :cool:

Please encourage anyone you know who'd be interested to go to vote in the poll so we get a good idea of the best date. :cheers2: I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again!

I have no preference on dates, I will work around what ever one is set.
There will be at least 2 shooter and maybe an extra.
Look forward to it the last one was a lot of fun.

It looks like Apr 30th and May 14th are pretty neck and neck. I'll give it a day or two more to see if a decisive choice comes out ahead then will change the poll to ask about food options.

It's not a debatable topic. You settled on what you feel is best for YOU. No one else's opinion matters.

What DOES matter is you getting proficient with it. :thumbs2:

Well we could always have both dates. :hurry:
