IBS 1000yd Nationals at White Horse

[mikegaiz]

I am planning on attending the Nationals at White Horse this year and am trying to get some information. I have not shot there before, so I am trying to find out about where are the closest motels and is there any food available at the range? I have sent emails to the organizers, but no answers yet. Any help would be appreciated.

If it is on the site, I am missing something?

They serve lunch and have pop, water, candy, chips all day, if I remember right. I am staying in Bridgeport.

Gentlemen,

I think I'll also post this in this forum/ this thread.

I donate a front rest to White Horse Center (i.e. 2012 IBS 1,000 yds National), shipped a few days ago.
But...
I am truly sorry with the fact that the rest/parcel still did not arrive yet, until now!
Also the fact that I did not able to send the rest earlier!
Fedex picked up the parcel on Monday (local time August 27, around 4 PM). I used Fedex Express (not Economy), which usually needs 3-4 working days to deliver goods to the States & to some other countries, door to door. I have told/urged Fedex that I need the goods to be arrived before the match. They informed me that they will. I have used Fedex & TNT for hundreds times and they're usually ok/on time, unless customs delay happens which also beyond their control.
Yes, there was a clearance delay in Memphis TN yesterday (August 31, local time) but it's already released & on the way to WV at this moment.
Due to the time difference between the USA/WV & my area (which is about 12 or 13 hours), I'm afraid that the parcel cannot arrive today (Saturday). I can't contact Fedex already now, it's Saturday 2.40 PM in my area, they're already closed.
I do really hope that the parcel can arrive today (Saturday morning US time).... but the delivery is beyond of my control.
I have emailed Stan about the parcel for a few times but no response. I believe he's very busy.
Also tried to call him by phone yesterday night (around 3 AM my local time) but connection failed.
Fedex does not deliver after 12 AM Saturday to my understanding, also on Sunday.

Just in case the parcel arrives on Monday, not today (which the match could be already over), I hope Stan / the match Director will be able to send the prize to the winner.
Here is the tracking # of the parcel: 899185583812. www.fedex.com

If somebody read this & able to tell Stan about the delay, please help / let him know my message & my apology. Thanks!
Tell him that he still can do the prize raffle on Sunday, although the rest is not arrived yet.

With regret,
seb.
