Is this the shoot that almost got shooting on private land in York township shut down last year? If so, how are we being better neighbors this year?

Hey guys, I have been talking to Forrest. He is extremely busy this year. I would like to get a tally of who is coming and what we can expect. It looks like if we pull this off it will be at an actual shooting range in Albion. For this to happen, we all need to get together and take care of some things. I am willing to do most of the leg work if we get some others willing to help out. I can contact vendors and set up a some shooting activities.
I wasn't able to go last year because of work so anyone that went that could help give me some ideas would be appreciated. Email is the fastest way to get a hold of me, and I live in Jackson. [email protected] |

So far, I have emailed Battle Comp, Battle Arms Development and Magpul.
I have heard back from Battle Comp and Battle Arms Development within 10 minutes of emailing them and they were both willing to donate some prizes and BC talked about possible sponsorship! Thanks BC and BAD! |

I want to thank everyone who has stepped up to make this year's event happen! And a special thank you to all of this year's event sponsers!!!!!!
I will suggest that one of you go to the archives and dig up last years list of what is needed and post it here and we can go ahead and post in the thread here who will take responsibility for what.......... i.e. R.O. 's food etc. I still have a bunch of wristbands from last year 1 for admission paid and singed waivers 1 for safety brief i should still have the raeffle tickets from last year too. It will be a hot one this year! canopies are suggested, sunblock etc. Lots of hydration, there is already a port-a-potty on site @ SLOC, we should ask the administrators to see if we can arrange for a service the day before and after our event. so everyone please step-up and make suggestions here, remember this is OUR event and only WE can make it safe and successful! I am very proud @ the level of involvement that some of you have taken on! I really enjoyed working on this event last year, and I wish thai I could do more this year, but I am just booked solid w/ work and Patriot Defense Training, and MDFI. I don't get as much opportunity to stopo in here as much either, so if you must get in touch with me please direct comms to [email protected]. Thank you all!!! Brad |

Someone should post a link to this thread up over on the ACTS board. And I will get the guys from the Gun Barn 2 tactical to check in here also.
We would like to have one of the ranges set-up as an ACTS stage or a skills challenge for prizes......... We need to get Jake Mckenzie out there too for some NFA demos as well. We should be able to get some other goodies out there from Schupbach's like last year- any other suggestions are welcome! We need some GOOD photography and video for further promotion for the following years and positive press....... Some of the training companies will be sponsoring the event with training certificates to add to the prize pool. Has some one contacted the AR15.com Site Staff yet? I will get with Steve Fisher of Magpul Dynamics for some goodies..........
Is anyone in with any of the USPSA or IDPA orgs? The NRA has extended their support for our event and will be sending some support our way!!! THANK YOU NRA!!! Brad |

Since I've never been to one of the shoots before could somebody put up an planned itinerary and maybe a corresponding list guns and ammo suggested for the various events. I'm hoping to make it out, as of right now I'm scheduled to work but I think that little hurdle can be overcome.

Dates are July 7-8 (overnight rustic camping) and its in Albion, MI. The place is called Spectacle Lake Outdoor Club. I can get the address later.
Not sure about the night shooting yet, still working out the details. We have to be considerate of the range rules and everything. |

A few more things guys and gals.
We are going to try to provide some food for the days but we would like everyone to bring a passing dish for each day you attend. This way we will have plenty of food for everyone. Anybody that can bring a cooler of bottled water to share would be appreciated. I will be bringing a couple of coolers with a few cases of water and ice in them. We also need some tables. Does anyone have a hookup? I have a truck that can transport some. Still looking for anyone to be a Range Officer. I would like to do it in shifts so that everyone has a chance to join the festivities. I will fill some time for one spot as an R.O. Anyone else want to volunteer? This year should be a great time and I just found out we have a camera guy taking pictures and video. There will be waivers for people that do not want their picture or video and he can edit you out if that is what you choose. |
