The firm dates are now May 25-27.
I've put together this schedule, let me know what you think.
Friday afternoon: Check in at competitors housing unit #2, which will be the base of operations.
Friday 6:00 pm: Social get together, chili cookoff, bring your favorite chili recipe to share, or something else for supper, we don't care what. Art also suggested a cookie contest, called a "cookie chill-off"
Saturday: Breakfast on your own. Meet at unit #2. Hand out maps and range rules. Quick go-over of range rules.
We have reserved a trap field for all day Saturday. This allows for five shooters at a time. Dave McCracken and sm (provided they can make it) will be in charge of this event and will be assisted by range officers.
If you don't want to participate in the trap event, you are free to use any of the other open ranges, provided you have paid the NRAWC range fee or membership fee.
Saturday Lunch: Cold cuts, sandwiches, Sandy's Salsa.
Saturday 6:00 PM, Pot luck dinner, we can furnish BBQ pork or something,
Sunday: Breakfast on your own.
We have reserved the hunter pistol silhouette range for Sunday. There are 40 shooting positions and 400 targets ranging from 25 to 100 yards. All pistol calibers from 22lr up to and including magnums are allowed. No bottle neck cartridges. Please don't bring loads you think might damage the steel silhouettes. Actually, we have a lot more fun with 22lr here than anything else.
Again if you don't want to participate in the silhouette event, you are free to use any of the other open ranges, provided you have paid the NRAWC range fee or membership fee.
My friend Bud (Smoke Rizen) will give a demonstration on black powder cartridges and CAS with same if anybody is interested.
Justin will give a demonstration on Bullseye pistol shooting, again, if anyone is interested.
So far, the only range closed to public use that I know of is the Long Range Rifle Silhouette range. They have a blackpowder cartridge event that weekend, which would be fun to check out.
On the lunch part: We don't mind preparing and bringing lunch stuff for everybody, but we really don't want to pay for all of it, so IF you guys agree to those plans, we may pass the hat to help offset the costs.
------------------------------------------
Costs to expect:
NRAWC range fees: $15 per day per person or $35 annual family membership (I believe you can pay that online in advance). Note: you don't have to pay the NRAWC range fees if you only plan on participating in the trap and hunter pistol events, since we are paying separately for those ranges, but if you want to use the other ranges, it would be a good idea.
Housing: $23 per night or $44 double occupancy (camping is less).
Saturday shotgun event: $10 per person plus $3 per round (25 birds),
Sunday handgun event: $10 per person.
Insurance: Total $800 - figure $10-$20 per person.
-----------------------------
We have reserved competitors housing unit #2, but have already filled about 20 of the 28 beds there. I would suggest anyone not camping try and get into one of the other two competitors units, they are all within walking distance.
-----------------------------
Send a $50 check pre-entry check to:
BJR
PO BOX 720671
OKC, OK 73172-0671
This will allow us to know how many are coming. Excess funds, if any, will be refunded. Insurance is the first priority, after that, it can be applied to range fees etc. Make checks out to "BJR". Bratch can keep us posted as to who has committed.

I'm going to unstick the other two threads on this.
Suggestions welcome.
