Ryano:
We'll be there friday after work.  ;D

BrianS:
Kevin,

Thanks for the posting about the shoot.

Like previous years, we are going to keep this shoot simple, low key, affordable and hopefully fun for everyone. 

I talked with Dave and Matt last night and they are planning on doing the bow making area under the shelter again.

Dino and Eric volunteered to set up the chronograph so guys can see how fast their bows are shooting (perhaps we can give out a prize to the fastest bow this year).

I am working out the "scenario" for this years woodswalk (on Saturday). I would like to do something really different with the woodswalk this year.

The Clout target (sunday) still only has a couple of holes in it, maybe this year we can put a few more in it this year.

I am not sure if we can top last years prize table with the current economy and all, but we will rustle up some prizes.

We are looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Take care,
Brian

Ryano:
Brian, I'll donate a prize or two.

BrianS:
Ryan,

A prize donation would be extremely generous and very much appreciated. Times are tough so I did not push for prizes.

Looking forward to seeing the PA boys.

Thanks again,
Brian
