Shooter, since I'll WILL be there, your tables are still 50% off?  Need to know which tables are yours so we can say hi.

AND let the ladies know the Women's Expo will be right next door again this year.  It is still to be determined if we are going to have a booth this year.

I got a packet from from the show promoter.  I wasn't planning on running a table since I'll be out of town that weekend, but if someone wants to set one up on behalf of the NFOA I can get them the info.

I'm willing to work the table for Saturday. I think we need to get back into the gun show side of advertising/getting new members.
It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.

OK, I think I actually ended up tossing the registration info but if you call Ardis at the number in shooter's post she will hook you up.

Gun shows are a great way to get the word out and expand our membership, but they require one thing that's often in short supply - volunteers.  Sitting there all day talking to people about the NFOA makes for a long day, so we can always use people that can help out and spread the load.

Getting info from Ardis, So far have gsd and possibly RobertH.  Anyone else interested in helping these guys out.
(If someone can't be there, but would like to help, the $27 table fee could be covered. (Much quicker and easier to cover out of pocket rather than go thru all the rigmarole in approving funds thru board) )


Also, The Women's Expo is a go- see other thread.
