i think maybe 8am?

who's getting the stuff from Venator?

I can meet someone tonight at say the intersection of 57 and 52 near Cheasaning. Nate can return the banners at our next committee meeting. All I need is a time. 6:00 PM works, we could have dinner after. I'll also have some buttons for you to sell as a fund-raiser. Let me know.

I messed up my ankle pretty bad last night, so I'll be the guy hobbling into the gun show. I'll try to be there around 8 then.

I have a gig tonight, so I can't meet Venator. Anybody else?

Also, any word on getting handouts printed up?

OK, I plan to make some copies of handouts in the morning before the gun show, so I probably won't be there right at 8.

I'm assuming nobody met Venator to get the banner. Brian, is there anyway to get the banner in the morning? Is there anybody who could meet up with him to pick the stuff up? I figured if we could at least get it for the afternoon, it'd be better than nothing.

Still at the show. Excellent response so far, I only had a couple of people that wouldn't believe me, and one that just walked away in the middle of me telling him it is in fact legal to OC on the sidewalk.

We got an offer for a free table at the Taylor Town Gun, knife, and military show next weekend. The show runs friday, saturday, and sunday. I'm willing to man a table on saturday. We don't have to have a table all three days, but we could. He said they don't have many tables left, but they'll make room. Anybody interested?

Well, we made out pretty well at the gun show. TONS of information was given out, and we made some money in donations. A HUGE thanks to ajelias for renting the table. Viper was there until about 1pm and Christy and I stayed until about 4:00.

I can help out with this, less than 3 miles door to door for me. I can print reams of handouts too.

Brain - You working near Ypsi this week or next? We can arrange a meet.
Most likely towards the middle of the week of May 4th. I'll PM you my work cell number on Monday. I can give you a call when I get a better line on the day.
