Scoop on the May USPSA match

Our May match has several details that are unusual so take note:

A. It is not on our normal match date. May 9th is a Saturday. We chose not to have our match on Mother's Day. We must keep our spouses and mothers happy.

B. The club is having a kids fishing derby on the grounds that day and they have asked us to start our match later in the day. The start time (shots fired) will be 12:00pm. Set-up wil start at 10:30am and signup will start at 11:00am and end at 11:30am. We must keep our other club members happy.

C. Speeding on the club grounds will be very strictly enforced. We may even have a speed trap on the grounds. Anyone caught driving over 10mph on the way in will not be allowed to shoot. Anyone caught speeding on the way out will not be allowed to shoot in next month's match. The board is unhappy with some of you speeding in and out, and with the kids on the grounds for the fishing derby it cannot be tolerated. Please be considerate.

D. There will only be one time slot this month. If we can't start until noon I doubt there will be any need for a second start, especially since it would be like 4:00pm.

E. Rob Burkindine will be our guest Match Director this month. I've been sharing the workload with several of our guys for quite a while, but Rob is designing the stages, picking the classifier, overseeing set-up, and doing the match briefing. He's also got a devious twist in mind for you sandbaggers.

Sign-up will not begin until May 3rd so don't jump the gun on us.

If you think you might like to bring your kids up early to take part in the fishing derby let me know at hkbrt@verizon.net and I'll get you more info.
