    The point of this meetup is to be over on the western side of the the state.
    Find a date first when most can make it then we'll pick an exact meeting place.

    So not having any luck with May get together

    - Larry suggested we move it out and make it more of a quarterly meet up

    - with 3 months notice can you guys check your schedule for July or August
    and post back what dates we might be able to do the next meet up.

    Just a suggestion if it is going to be July or August lets move it up north where it is a bit cooler. Flag, Prescott or Payson I don't imagine the turn-out would be very good in a hot area like Yuma or Havasu.

    The invitation is still open to anybody wanting to attend a meeting of the Arizona Arms Association. Its held at the VFW in the Sunnyslope area. This past Saturday was WW1 theme. Saw a pretty cool collection of WW1 era European revolvers. Naturally there were a few 03 Springfields displayed. The dates can vary but usually 2nd or 3rd Saturday of the month. Anybody interested in attending. Let me know and I'll keep you advised when the date is set.

    So lets narrow down the month - who wants July and who's free in August

    Payson in July is nice. Just avoid the 4th holiday week!

    Just hope we do not run into rain like before! It is monsoon season you know.

    The later in July is historically the worse for a repeat of the rain
    - OK, crossing off the first weekend
    - shall we shoot for the second Saturday?

    2nd Saturday works for me but I'm flexible. Possibly we could arrange some car pooling. Due to my poor health I can't at this time offer a ride. If anybody in the valley area or other parts of the state needing a lift or willing to volunteer a seat or two. Perhaps sharing or pitching in toward the cost of this liquid gold we call gasoline. Feel free to jump into this thread.

    I would be happy to drive. Best place to meet up would be Bass Pro Shop parking lot? Works for me and we are close to Bee Line.

    I "aim" a Lexus SUV so I can hold 3 more guys very comfortable with stuff in the back. (4 if someone wants to ride in the middle of the back seat on the arm rest pull-down!)

    No smokers, please.

    Let me know.

    I'm going to start a new thread to try and get more attention for this...


    http://castboolits.gunloads.com/show...e-or-be-square

    Please post on it if you are going to be coming and if you want to
    1) shoot first then do lunch or 2) breakfast then shoot

    If you have a preference as to where you want to eat go ahead and include it.
