Long Range at AEDC this Sunday

[dblinden]

I have not seen nor heard any buzz about this weekend's match. I hope it is still on as I am planning to attend.

Anything to the contrary? It's a fairly long drive from Vermont so I would like to save the expense if not happening.

Thanks - Dennis L

The matches are pretty much always on schedule unless a major T-storm pops up.

Weather looks good for Sun.

I just posted an update and sent out an e-mail to everyone regarding Sunday's match.

Here is what I e-mailed to the 375 people on the distribution list and posted to the other thread:

Shooters,

The National Guard will be conducting training at the AEDC ranges on Saturday, and plans to finish up that day, but there is a possibility for carryover activity on Sunday morning, the day of our match. We may still be able to start on time, or we may be delayed 1-3 hours while they complete their training. If we are delayed for longer than 3 hours (not likely), we may reduce the match to 40 shots instead of 60.

Last year when this happened we were delayed 2 hours, but used this time for all of our prep work and the actual firing start time was only delayed by 90 minutes, allowing us to complete the full 60-shot match.

We will have no further information on logistics until we actually arrive on Sunday morning, so if you are planning to attend, please arrive at the normal 8:00 CDT for registration.

If anything other than a perfectly executed, non-delayed, full 60-shot match would ruin your day and/or induce you to complain to the match director, please consider skipping this match. We will most likely be OK, but some of you travel great distances to attend, so I felt obligated to make you aware of all possibilities for Sunday.

See you there,
