As we make preparations for our annual member meeting August 23rd, I would like to know who would you like to see as a guest speaker?

I did have another member contact me and ask that we invite Ben Sasse to the meeting.   What do other members think?   I wanted to shy away from folks that were on the campaign trail, though I can see value too.

It's rather a double edged sword, we can either prove to them that we as a voting populace are standard normal individuals, or one person could ruin it for everyone by running off at the mouth. (Probably why I will be quiet if I attend)

It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.

Not that precedent means everything, but we did have Charlie Janssen speak last year while he was running for governor.

maybe we should invite politicians but have a speaker who isn't a politician.... just a thought.  i wonder how much it would take to get Colion Noir (who i really like), Larry Vickers, Chuck Norris or Ted Nugent to speak or show up.

Not sure about speaking fee, but when I tried to get her to Lincoln or the Womens Expo , it was prepurchase of X amount of books, travel expense, rental car, lodging, and I'm not certain if measure were included.  Was a bit too rich for our blood then and the pocketbook is a bit slimmer now. Just my $.02 of course.
But you did remind me, I'll make contact with Madison Rising's people again to see if they are booked that night. ;)

Julie Golob just moved next door to Missouri (No I'm not stalking- much)
I've always wondered if she'd come speak.

Did anyone mention Kirsten Joy Weiss?



"Starting later than the norm for most competition shooters, she began her Olympic-style rifle career in the latter part of her high school days, but made up for time swiftly. She won gold at the international cup at Bisley, Enlgand and received a collegiate rifle scholarship to the University of Nebraska Lincoln. From there she made the national development team, competed in the World Championships, made the Olympic short-list, won national titles, and the list continues   "
