Hello 4kedHorn,
I just had a chance to review the posts since I received your last e-mail as I've been busy trying to get the next issue finalized. I'm glad to hear you received the magazine I sent you.
Thanks to all of the support that's been given to us on this board. It is greatly appreciated.
As for the patches Good Grouper mentioned . . . I must tell you we just purchased a machine that will allow us to do our own patches. We have not had 1500 and 2000 yard patches available since we have had to order them by the "hundreds" in the past. There just aren't that many in those two down range clubs to justify ordering that many patches so we've taken the necessary steps to carry out the wishes of our members as we've had several requests for them over the years.
There are Down Range Club shirts available. They just don't have the yardage on them. If you come to the Jamboree bring whatever clothing you want as our plan is to have the embroidery machine set up to embroider down range club info, names, varmints, etc. on items.
I hope to see some of you at the 600 Yd Matches and/or the Jamboree this year. It's always nice to put a face with a name. The Jamboree is like one big family reunion and the reunion gets bigger and better every year. We have so much fun it also gets harder and harder when everyone leaves the event as it is an entire year before we get to see the the advertiser's, members and their families again.
At any rate, I best be getting back to work. We all have lots to do as we have all kinds of projects/events coming up. Next weekend is our first Youth Coyote Calling Hunt so we are all excited and have many things to do before then. One more youngster is going to be addicted to this sport as all it takes is ONE coyote hunt.
Thanks once again and have a fantastic day!
