PGCA annual meeting

[Eldon Goddard]

I really want to go to the annual meeting are you sure you guys do not want to move it to Las Vegas.

Eldon,

Thanks for your note. Really easy to make that happen! Join the committee (me and Dave Suponski are events committee co-chairs) for events and take the "bull by the horns" and make it happen. David Dwyer and Tom Carter have done an amazing job with this years meeting planning. This is going to be a great meeting. Next year could be in Vegas- it just takes a strong volunteer to help us make that happen.

We have been to Winter Vegas for the PGCA Annual Meeting, but it is a bit of a chore to fit "Winter Vegas" into the PGCA festivities. I would rather keep our annual meeting in a less busy atmosphere. What do the rest of you think?

[Dean Romig]

I kind of agree with Bill but I do believe the PGCA Annual Meeting and Banquet should be held at a large shooting event such as the Vintage Cup or the Spring or Fall Southern. This helps to ensure a good turnout at the banquet and helps make it what it has always been - a great PGCA social event with an abundance of shooting and visiting.

What Dean and Bill said but let me add, this is a no-brainer to me. The spring Southern, with the Challenge event drawing a good number of members, is the most logical venue for our annual meeting. Maybe Robin, John, Jeff or other computer whiz could set up a poll on this site so as many members as possible could vote where they would like to see the meeting held.

I hope you guys did not take me seriously, I did not expect that you would actually come all the way out here. Are not most you guys on the east coast? I am actually planing on moving out there if I can get the chance, when I graduate looking for jobs around maryland or new hampshire. Just lementing not being able to go, but Ill make sure to be there next time. Las Vegas is very nice in winter though about the only thing I like about this place.(other than my family of coarse)

Eldon, if you will reread my post, you will find that we have had the PGCA annual meeting in Las Vegas in conjunction with the Beinfeld Winter Gun Show. If you ever attend that show, you will find that the schedule is a bit tight for PGCA festivities. I was so rushed that year that I actually missed the meeting and dinner because of other committments.

I agree but whatever you guys decide on, "Do not put it in the Middle of Bird Hunting Season" ! !

For what it's worth, I too agree with Mr. Corona and Mr. Eis.
