HOW MANY?

[Bill Murphy]

I'm not worried about young members that much, although every one is welcomed. How many of the 1179 members would have had this interest when they were 24 and struggling with a young family and a new career? Interest comes with leisure time and money.

I think you'll agree Bill, that the seeds of interest are sown a lot earlier than that.

To each his own but I think it would behoove us, as an organization of shooters and collectors and every related tangent, to get young people involved as early as we can. Who else will carry the torch thirty and forty years from now if the young folks are not welcomed with open arms?
