Hello people!?!?!? is anybody out there?

This is THE EVENT of the year.

This is where and when we show Canton police that an IWB holster without anything else covering it IS OPEN CARRY!

We want to make a point, not get people into trouble. Therefore I ask the following:

I ask that ALL CPL holders wear and use an IWB to this event.
I ask that all non-CPL holders wear fully exposed holsters to this event.

MOC can plan on doing something at this event. We also got contacted about a Freedom Fest in Tawas over the week of July 4th. So we will be needing volunteers to man tables etc..... at least at the Tawas event as a table has been reserved.

Doug can you take the lead on this? Is it too late to have a MOC table?
