Help Needed: Its for the children, really!

[WETSU]

Hey gang,

I serve on the board of directors at Camp Potawotami, a local old school Y summer camp. A few years ago I restarted the riflery program at camp, with some of your help. Thanks. That program has allowed hundreds of boys and girls the opportunity to shoot a gun, who may never, ever have that chance otherwise.

This summer, the program is low on .22 shorts. They use shorts or CB caps so they don't have to use ear pro (eye pro still std).

As we all know, ammo of any kind is scarce, and they are just now finding this out. They cannot just drive into town and buy a few bricks.

I have 21st Century Firearms looking, but does anyone have a box or two you would like to donate to the riflery program?

Hit me up here, or via PM.

And many thanks.

Russ

I was at the new ZX guns in Fort Wayne last Saturday and they had a couple boxes of shorts. My father was at Camp Potawatomi as a kid and he served as a chaperone when my school went probably 7-8 years ago. Fun place!

Will start digging. I've got a couple of boxes of my own I'll be sending.

I will check when I get home. I think I could spare a few rounds.

I may have some shorts, I will look and see and send them out.

You guys are awesome.

Wetsu, I'll take a look around the fishers and Bloomington area for shorts... If I find any I'll grab them... don't know how I'll get them to you, but I'll get them there!

We have to keep teaching the younger generations.

Check with a local Rural King, my local Rural King has some shorts the other day (but they were 4.49 a box).

There are still a couple 100 round boxes there.

I don't have any, but for what it is worth, I did see some for sale at Rural King in Martinsville. A few days ago they had quite a bit.

Is CCI 22LR Quiet an option?

CCI Ammunition - Product Detail

Hush: It

If so and I can find a way to get the ammo to you, I may be able to help with a couple hundred rounds.

Wetsu,
I have two bucks I can donate, and will be in New Haven later today. We could meet up and I'd be glad to give them to you.

Sorry, that's two bricks.

 

[WETSU]

Guys. Sorry I have been MIA. I was out of town and unplugged. Many thanks for you offers of donations of any size and your sharp eyes spotting shorts. I will find out if my nearby Rural king has any. If not I may ask some of you to grab some and I will pay you for them. Rollingblock, thank you brother. I will hook up with you via PM and that arranged.

Once again, you guys prove that the shooting community is one that gives, and cares.
