Anything From Georgetown?
 

How is the weather in Georgetown? You guys travel home safely.

weather is cloudy but good now.
Most of us are heading out. i'm hopping on a plane hoping not to get trapped at BWI. Dean and Larry are driving north but west and Edgar left yestaerday along with a lot of others.

Rick Hemingway is the man. Nothing seems to slow him down. What a great host. Linda and I will leave this morning. Best wishes to the Suponskis, who are home by now, but facing evacuation in Bridgeport. My mistake. Dave does not live in Bridgeport, as I had thought.

I don't mean to ignore the hospitality of Bill Kempfler, who gave away free display booths to the exhibitors when it was evident that there would be a few no shows. The display tent was enormous and dry. The grounds were fit for low shoes regardless of the wet conditions.

Rick Hemingway did a great job. I will certainly return next year. Enjoyed shooting the five stand with fellow parker owners and cant wait till the next event.

What do you mean "gave away free display booths to the exhibitors, etc."??? I paid a lot of money for my booth; is Bill refunding?? We need to clarify this RIGHT NOW!!!

We left Georgetown at 8:15 this morning,arrived home (Lancaster area of PA) about 7:30. Light spotty rain and gusty winds along most of route 95.
Had a great time at Back Woods,enjoyed shooting with some of our New England friends, already looking forward to next year!
The Parker banquet was superb, great food,good friends,awsome Parkers to examine. Saw lots of pictures being taken,suspect many will be posted here soon.

glad you fellows had a good time at the shoot and that the meal and fellowship was so good...seems like a good time was had by all... now waiting on some of those pictures... how many 8 ga s werepresent.... charlie

Kevin, as usual, is right. Bill Kempfler "Let paid exhibitors spread out beyond their original assigned areas to fill in unoccupied space."

Charlie, Jerry Smith had a rare Grade 3 #5 frame lightweight eight for sale. I believe it is a lifter. It was not cheap. Maybe someone else knows the price. Sorry I did not examine it, because I had seen it before. The eight gauge Parker that was donated for the "silent auction" at the PGCA banquet was in the mid $300 range when I last saw it. I don't know what the final price was. Those were the only eights I was aware of.
