So Cal Benefit Shoot, for Wounded Warrior Center, Camp Pendleton.
Gentlemen. I have important news to communicate!
On October 4th, 2008 there will be an event that will make all members of the belt fed community proud. In support of the Wounded Warrior Center, Camp Pendleton Chapter, a fund raiser will be held at the Lytle Creek Firing Line in Southern California. A portion of the range is being reserved for our new group. We are planning on attracting shooting enthusiasts from all segments of the sport, with the attraction we have already developed in our belt fed events over the past few years. Since our presence was the main factor in bringing in a range-record number of paid shooters and visitors at our last event, George W had the idea that we could leverage that and use the appeal to support a worthy cause. A few of us have been having lunch meetings to begin planning this and we feel we are ready to make it public.
The basic format will involve a select number of us that will set up a range of belt fed guns, as well as many other interesting firearms, that will be available to the general public for a donation. This will be similar to the way many full auto shoots are done. Remember that this is California, and so the opportunity to fire a belt fed semi is as appealing to the average shooter as getting rock and roll time is for others at KCR or OFASTS. All money above the cost of ammo will be donated directly to the Camp Pendleton's Wounded Warrior Center. In addition, there will be a BBQ going full speed, with donations above food costs again going to the Chapter.
All attendees will pay the normal Lytle Creek range fee, sign their release waiver, etc. For the general public who want to bring their own hardware to shoot, after donating to get some time on a belt fed or a .50 cal bolt gun, a large portion of the range will be open for regular use.
Now we have many details to work out yet, and more information will be following. But we wanted to start getting the word out. In recap, here is the most important information for you all to know for now.
What: A CHARITABLE EVENT to benefit the Wounded Warrior Center, at Camp Pendleton.
When: October 4th, 2008
Where: Lytle Creek Firing Line, in the San Bernardino Forest
Who: SoCalBeltfedshooters. That includes everyone in our 1919 community who wants to help out our brave men who have sacrificed so much for us all.
Please contact me at [email protected] for more information. Or, you can reach George W, DRH and iRIGHTi through the board here.
With your help, gentlemen, we can do something great!
