Hey Indysafe, How far are you from Anderson?

indysafe317 · 07-05-2009

about 20 - 25 minutes. About 9 miles south of tipton

indytechnerd · 07-07-2009

I'm on the SW side of Marion County, couple miles from Southwestway Park. While I'm technically 2C, would it be better to aim for the 3C group and head away from the big city if TSHTF?

indysafe317 · 07-09-2009

Not sure if anyone is doing anything in this area. I'll put together something if there is an interest. I'm sure I can find a gathering place. I was thinking maybe get together, introduce ourselves. Start with Bob's, some local resources and maybe a few tips and tricks and then build from there. If there is any interest let me know and we'll get er done. If someone already has something going in this area, let me know. I'm interested.

I'm not a huge firearms guy. I know enough to get myself hurt.

but I'm sure there is someone who could help in that area. Love camping, Former AF Military Police. Served as a combat medic during 1st gulf war and came back to become a Firefighter. Was a medic for a while, now I count my days until retirement on a Ladder truck and have fallen back to basic EMT. I teach some CPR and First Aid on the side and other than that, enjoy time with my family and want to have a plan should SHTF.

I'm sure there are a few of you that could help you our in the firearms area

I for one would be up for meeting up with others and getting something going. I'm hoping to get my BOB together soon.

indysafe317 · 07-10-2009

yep, we just have to get a few people who are interested in meeting and we can put something together as a start. I wish there was a way to send out an email to multiple people at once instead of going through one by one, I saw a list of people in our area. I was gonna come up with an agenda for the first meeting. Even had a thought to give away a BOB. Nothing special, just a small backpack with some basic supplies that I can scavenge for nothing.

There is a group list for Hamilton County. I suggest that you use that as the place for group mailings.

UPDATE 07/10/09

Due to being overwhelmed with Appleseed and INGO Moderating, I have neglected the MSG activities. Thankfully, longbow has stepped forward to take over and start making things happen again. My thanks to him and I look forward to seeing more picnics, shoots, and training sessions. Thanks to everyone!

And most thanks to longbow!

I think EVERYONE could use some first aid training. never hurts.
How about perhaps some training on trapping animals?
Building primative shelters out of things found in wood rather than brought in.

Let me think on it a bit and i will get back to you with more ideas.
