Default Southern SxS Shoot

Just saw a post on the Doublegun website advising that the Southern has been cancelled. What the ****** is going on here?

We need to stamp out the the brush fires before they become blazing infernos.

Can Somebody get an up-to-the-moment quote from Bill?


It seems that "Mark" is making a statement representing Bill Kempffler.

There is no such announcement on the Deep River website as of 1 minute ago.

I received a vendor's e-mail from Mary Kempffer @ 3:56PM - yes, it is cancelled.

The LACA did also.
This is not a drill.

And it’s not a dress rehearsal either.

I talked to Bill this morning and it was still on. Then Mary sent an email saying it was canceled. The travel ban affects overseas vendors and then the NC governor restricted large public gatherings. Bill and Mary had no choice.

They can cancel whatever they want but I'm going to shoot those four days at Drakes Landing. I've been looking forward to this for months and won't let a virus stop me from having a good time.

Rich, Stay safe traveling, and good luck finding a place to eat, since I am an old fart and they tell me I am at high risk I am staying put although with a good supply of wine and old bourbon whiskey, this will pass, and we will be stronger for it, Gary

Thanks Gary. We will be staying at a friends house so we can cook meals. I have three criteria as far as being a prime candidate for the virus but life is short and it doesn't scare me. For the first time in my life I have medication and would be considered uninsurable
