Made the Walworth County Gazette

Wanted to give you a heads up that I ran across you posts on opencarry.org about the fairgrounds over the weekend.

I put together a digest for our online site, with a roundup of some other recent open carry stories in the news.

Thanks for the article, but to be correct, I decided against it because I thought it was PUBLIC property and as such, if it was and being surrounded by 3 schools, I would violate the Gun Free School Zone law. After discussion with Sheriff Graves, I discovered it was private property which would allow me to open carry as long as the Fairgrounds management didn't ask me to leave.

At the moment as well, the City of Elkhorn has an unenforceable prohibition on open carry. I am working with the city council and they say that ordinance will be repealed by the end of July.
