This all is a real blow to everything. I can't speak for the board but it will be hard to hold the meeting with the Southern canceled.

That said, we can hopefully still go and shoot and maybe we'll have a mini Southern

My first year I can finally attend...son of a gun!

We may have to consider the Hoosier SxS Classic as a venue :shock:

Mike Koneski 03-15-2020 09:07 PM

Northern SxS at Rock Mountain, July 30-31, August 1-2.

Yesterday the CDC issued guidelines that outdoor events over the next 60 days and with >50 people should be cancelled or postponed. Undoubtedly organizers need to consider this as regards their insurance coverage. That takes us to about mid-May. The NE SxS at Hidden Hollow (Hausmann's) is in early June so I guess we'll have to wait and see if there's an extension or the CDC guideline runs out. Just my take on it …….

why don't we look at now- not months from now

the medical experts say if we confine it - 4 to 8 weeks and back to normal

Given the cancellation of the Southern Side By Side Event, I am very disappointed to announce that the PGCA board has decided to cancel the 2020 Annual Meeting and Banquet and associated activities. Over the next couple of days, we will be working to develop a method to reimburse the people that have purchased banquet tickets. In future months, if we are able to reschedule the Annual Meeting and Banquet we will inform all of the membership as soon as practical.

Thanks Tom

I’m sure it didn’t take long to arrive at that decision given all we are facing as of late.

I know coming up with a new plan and venue for our next Annual Meeting is a decision that will take a good amount of time in ironing out the logistics.

I know how much effort goes into all the planning and securing necessary agreements and contracts and I’m sure everybody understands your and the BOD’s disappointment in this necessary decision.

Best, Dean

I for one am very disappointed with this, but there really is no choice and it is probably a safe move anyway.

no charge

I just reserved for Thursday through Saturday night the last room available from the PGCA discounted-price block.

More rooms are available, but at the regular rates and the rooms are not of the "standard" description that constituted the PGCA block.

I talked with Ashley, the Front Desk Manager, at 919-775-2000. She was very pleasant to deal with and seemed to have good situational awareness.

I just spoke this a.m. with Ashley at The Hampton Inn, and she said that there will be no charge for my canceling my reservation for lodging that coincides with the now-canceled Southern Side-by-Side and PGCA Annual Meeting and Banquet.

She said she is looking forward to seeing all of us next year.

Many thanks to the PGCA organizers for choosing this business entity for our block room arrangements, as it has been easy at every turn to communicate and deal with its people at the front desk.

Disappointing development on many fronts.
For those that had forwarded silent auction items for transport south, I will make arrangements to mail back to you in the near future.

Golf Cart Rental
 
For those of you that may have rented a golf cart through Carolina Carriage don't forget to cancel that one. They charged my CC immediately upon ordering the cart but were very pleasant to deal with on the refund.

Email just came in from my gun club all organized completion cancelled. Members can still shoot.

It’s a big club with many competitive events, large non member attendance. Concern was liability.

William
