Last year the potato salad and the baked beans were fantastic.

Thank you Sir, on behalf of Jack and Hillary respectively. We will be bringing more of each this time.

***Ammo/cash/etc. Mule Opportunity*** heading from NWI via I-65 to Columbus to SR 46 to Nashville, IN tomorrow (6/3), and I am returning Tuesday (6/6) and heading back up around 1pm ish (after golf, lunch, & BSing you know). PM me if we can meet up. (Monday will be a "no-go" (unless you want to drive to Salt Creek Golf Resort) as we are playing 2 rounds, , and tomfoolery will be mandatory.)

Hey all, this may seem like a silly question but is this event more geared towards just youth or is like an all ages type thing? I'm pretty new to this forum and wanted to make the last meetup but had prior obligations. This event seems like a good time but I don't want to be the guy showing up by himself with no kids lol. I don't have much to bring besides food and cash but I would be more than happy to lend an extra set of hands where they might be needed. Thanks in advance for any info!

Love to meet you.

This is open for all, just geared to youth. The range will be for those shooting but I'm sure they'll love extra hands to help out and safety.

It's more geared towards being a "learning" thing.
We cover basic firearms safety, and getting rounds on the target.
If that's what you want, then come on by.

If you just want to bang away, the range will reopen at noon.
Some of us stick around to shoot, because instructors don't really get much shooting done.

 

[actaeon277]

As for ages, I taught family that had a blind granddad, a daughter, and a grandson.

So any age is welcome to learn.
As long as they are responsible.

 

[Ballstater98]

We had a dad a couple years ago that came over to the shotgun area, by himself, wanting to learn how to shoot one. He told us his wife and child, who was too small, were in line for the .22's again. He was a good, listening learner and caught on quickly. He enjoyed his experience so much that he came back later and wanted to try again.

Sounds like this will also be a good opportunity for me to learn a couple of things too! Looks like I will see you guys (and gals) there. I can bring some ammo and something to eat. There will be food, no?

If anyone is passing through Michiana, I'm committed to a brick of .22 LR. I'm just off the toll road at exit 83 on weekdays.

I'll be driving out if all goes well from NJ this weekend to work on my house in Winamac. Would like to help. I have few goodies and some rounds if necessary. My place is minutes away. -Brian

Should I register for this or just show up? Also, I can't seem to find what time it will be.
