GSSF in June - need volunteers

[sjstill]

The GSSF Match is coming to Eagle Creek Pistol Range June 21 - 22, 2008. I need volunteers to help set up on the 20th, and to help run the stages 21-22.

For every 4 hour block of time you donate, you get a raffle ticket for one of 2 Glocks to be given away. You can also earn an extra 2 tickets for setting up (1) and tearing down(1).

You'll also get a GSSF t-shirt & hat, and a Glock freebie (mag or knife or holster or....).

I'd love to help out again this year. I can't commit yet though until I know when I'm moving to Florida, looks like this one may be my last hurrah for Indiana matches if I can make it.

The more the merrier. Hopefully it won't rain this time. Pasting targets under the trashbags was a PITA.

I can't commit yet, but it might be fun to come help with an event like this. When do you need firm answers by at the latest?

This. I'm moving closer to the area next month, and it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to be there at 8 am. How many people typically show up to an event like this?

I'm really tempted as I was thinking of coming down and shooting at the match, but with Shay's class the weekend before it might be a bit of a stretch. I'll have to check to see if I can manage two weekends away. I'd love to get the behind the scenes view of a GSSF match.

I'd like to help out. I'll know if I can as we get closer to the event. Looking forward to meeting you at our class Tom!

We can still sign you in the day of the match. IIRC, start time for crew is 7.30 Sat morning.

Normally we run close to 300 shooters through the course of the weekend. We have competitors from as far as Florida.

There are 8 stages set up, like to have 4 people per stage to run it smoothly, so that's at least 32 people minimum to keep the flow. The more, the merrier (as has been said).

I intend to work Sat and Sun, it's on my Outlook schedule. Hope nothing gets in the way. Even with the rail last year, it was fun.

I have 0 experience with GSSF matches, or any other competition of this kind... But I'd be interested in getting involved and volunteering... Is experience required?

Nope and it isn't hard to learn. If I can learn it, anyone can.

The more, the merrier (as has been said).

We keep saying this, because the more help there is, the less it feels like work for everyone. So the saying is quite literal.

 

[465guy]

Maybe I can help out this year.

 

[strongcrow]

I am in to volunteer at least some on Saturday and some on Sunday.

 

[strongcrow]

Steve, I can be there saturday morning, for at least 4 hours,maybe more,depending. And 4 hour minimum on Sunday. What time would you like me there on Saturday?? Early shift, as I'm an early riser.

 

[jontheturboguy]

Im interested, although Id like to know more about what all is involved.

 

[Disposable Heart]

Steve, you know you have me there! Gotta get me a T-shirt!

I will be moving to the area(about 2 miles away) in a week or so. I have a zoo day planned for the 21st, but the 22nd I am free.

What time do you need us to show up and when will it end for the day?

So I will plan to show up at 0730 on sunday and can stay all day.

My zoo day runs 1000 to 1400. I should be able to get back to Eagle Creek by 1530. So if any help is needed from 1530 to the end let me know.







Thanks,
James
