He aint from around here. He thinks he will be in/near Richmond Saturday September 5th and/or Sunday September 6th. Time of arrival is currently unknown so this may be in addition to the historically Most Saturdays Greater RVA Breakfast.

More details will be released as the "furriner" figures out his itinerary and such-like.

Identity of the "furriner" will remain confidential in the hopes that by not knowing who it is more will come out just to find out.

Go sharpen those pencils now. I'll let you know when to start using them on your calendars.

stay safe.

That is Labor Day weekend

Should we plan a range trip for the geographically deprived now that they are setting foot in a freedom zone, if only for a few days?:monkey

That would be a wonderful thing. Thank you for volunteering to bring it to fruition once the date is locked in.

will need to know which toys to bring....

This is why I maintain a membership at Black Creek: Guest privileges!:banana:

I'll see if the mystery guest wants to limit trigger time to handguns.

stay safe.

While I was posting this the mystery guest had PM'd me saying that they would not be able to pin down which day they will be in the area until about August 29th. Will you be able to work with just a week to set things up?

Should still be able to manage schedule

The more notice the better, but flexibility is possible. If other than handguns, OC'd of course, is desired, I can manage a few options. Number of guests is limited by range rules. The entourage must remain limited. Extra effort will be spent if this "furriner" is new to firearms. I love new shooter smiles! :)

So I'm guessing that trying to reserve/rent a couple of hours for a crowd in excess of 6 (2 members + 2 guests each), on Labor Day Weekend, would be a leeetle bit more difficult than the "impossible" one would encounter any other day?

Anybody have land reasonably close to Richmond?

stay safe.

Well, thanks for pointing that out.

But I understand that nobody would need to use the ferry.

Also, Surry is close enough.

I'll get back to you on your generous offer of your land once dates and times are more solidly known.

stay safe.

UPDATE!

You are now advised to stand by to stand by to receive definitive information.

Those found sitting, munching popcorn and sipping soda, will be asked why they did not bring enough for everyone.

stay safe.
