As in the past I will be more then happy to "set a spell" at the table, too.

Looks like only 2 of us Long Island boys will be out there this year. Don't worry,we're the lesser shooters of the 4.

Dave Suponski made the statement and request on page 3 of this thread that we need somebody to set up the Parker Gun Collectors Assoc. booth and tables at Hausmann's Hidden Hollow this year. This means simply spreading our tablecloths on three tables, hanging the banner over the rear of the PGCA area, putting some guns on a few racks you bring (or if you have no racks or stands, just lay them neatly on the table), membership applications, a bunch of past issues of Parker Pages as hand-outs, a Serialization book to use as a reference when someone stops by to check if his gun is original or altered..... not much more than that guys, and being available or making sure that someone is in the booth at all times. This could be a group effort if a few of you would just put your heads together and come up with a simple plan.

You can contact Dave Suponski for pointers and to tell him where to send the package with our three PGCA tablecloths so that you can set up the booth like it has been done in the past.
Dave won't be able to make it to Hausmann's this year and Larry Frey and I will not be arriving until late morning on Friday and we'll be leaving on Saturday after the main event has gone off.

It's time for a changing of the guard fellas.... or else the PGCA booth will be a vacant space this year.

Please step forward and continue to make the PGCA visible at Hausmann's again this year.

Thank You!

Two other LI boyz will be at Hidden Hollow, not sure when they arrive or how long they stay, but they SHOULD be there.

Lenny & I booked rooms for Wed., Thurs, & Fri., nights.(each). I'm driving. I won't have my Parker though. It's still upstate, NY being restored. Lenny is lending my that Charles Daley. I'll bring along my Stevens 16 ga. as well.

Dean, I am planning on getting into Ernies Wed eve and set up camp--so if I have those things I can certainly get them set up Thurs morn. Never fear, the PGCA will be represented--well, maybe not as well as in the past. I am going to PM you my cell number--will be easier to work out the details that way.
Looking forward to seeing/shooting with everyone.

Thanks very much Harold. You won't be alone in this endeavor - several others have said they will spend time at our tables. I hope you can get some help setting up - it's not hard but will be easier with two or three people placing the tables and spreading the tablecloths, etc.

The PGCA is one of the finest shotgun collecting organizations in the country, if not the world, and it is staffed and operated totally by volunteers, and that makes us very special.

Again, thank you Harold for taking the lead and a big thanks to everyone else who will be helping out at the PGCA tables.

Best, Dean

BTW, if anybody wants to shoot against those Fox guys( whoops, I are a Fox guy too), in the Fox/Lefever Challenge, I will bring a nice little Lefever 16 ga Damascus G grade F/F, 28", happy to let you shoot it.

OK, this time next week, hope to smell that burning powder, and the sound of gunshots and maybe some curses if we happen to miss!
Dean and Dave, hope you have shipped out The PGCA paraphernalia, remember Mon is Memorial Day.
Some of you have also volunteered to sit at the booth, so far myself, Edgar, Eric, Dean, and Chuck--anybody else??
Hope to meet some new faces, and see old friends.
Harold
