Fall Southern Oct 20-22

[Mills]

Thank you for your support, William and welcome to the PGCA!

Mills
I must respectively disagree with you on PGCA membership being required. John L & I initially organized this event and membership in either organization was specifically not required. It was required that you own the gun you shoot though. PGCA does not sponcer this event or have any involvement in any way.They were recently asked again to sponcer it in a letter to John Davis and declined.

Just to clarify, and not get into the middle of any 'fracus' the PGCA is limited according to its bylaws to the number of events it can sponsor. It was not John Davis' decision to deny any request of sponsorship... he was merely following the law.

Thanks for the clarification. There is not "fracus" just a friendly clarification of the rules.. I shot with Mills and his sharp shooter wife, Julia ,this morning she easily out shot us both.

Mr. Romig,
Are the complete bylaws available on the PGCA's home page? If so could you please direct me to the article that limits the number of events sponsored I am probably missing it. Thanks.

Sorry for falling in so late on this one.
One nice thing about the Fall Southern is that she's a pretty informal event. As such, we've got liberty to make it the best event we can for as many folks as possible, & not just the top guns of both Teams Parker & LC Smith. Don't get me wrong, there's a place for that, and it's in Sanford NC in the Spring!
David D refreshes my memory on the topic, and I believe he's correct. In any event, we've acknowledged previously that we're in a deficit situation regarding torch bearers going forward. Whether it's in Sanford or Georgetown, or the Vintage Cup, or any other event sanctioned or not, I'd suggest that we encourage any minor with what appears to be an interest or knack for whackin & stackin 'em to participate. If that requires them to be a member of their respective organization I'd suggest that they be sponsored by either one or both organizations for their first years membership. Not a large expenditure for either group, and it might go a long way towards bolstering the beginners interest that brought them to the table to start with.
Just my two cents.
John

My apologies Mr. Pellegrini, and others, I misspoke. I too read through our bylaws and found no reference to my statement. However, I now see that it is in the PGCA Policies & Procedures.

I want to insure my comments are not interpreted in any way as being critical of PGCA or the BOD. I think we have the best BOD we have ever had ,and John David is a friend and doing a great thankless job. Guys, please keep up the good work as it is greatly appreciated. I am looking forward to the youth shoot at Sanford

David, I don't think anyone who has read your posts thought you were being critical of the PGCA or its BOD. You're a very kind and decent man and wouldn't do that.

Best, Dean
