Dad and I are planning on attending...We'll be going to the Friday night event, and I'll sit in on the table off and on all weekend...

Dad will be our "roving reporter"...He's a "photog" type person... ;-)

BTW, does anyone remember from last year if they (convention organizers) had a problem with photography at any of the venues???

I seem to recall that there was a rub there about that...Just want to confirm...My Dad feels a bit nakid without his super-telephotopolarizingzoom lens on that digital camera of his...

Is there any plans by the TSRA to re-examine what political candidates they support? They treated candidates from the Libertarian party pretty shoddy, in that they didn't even acknowledge that they were running in many races. Its not just that treated us unfairly, they pretended we didn't exist. They wouldn't grade us or even list us as candidates. They won't get a cent out of me until they at least acknowledge that I exist.

If anyone is planning to attend the FONRA dinner and would like to sit with the group, let me know. If there is any interest, I'll post a "sign-up" sticky.

Kimberly and I have purchased our tickets for the Friends of the NRA dinner. I hope that some of you guys and gals decide to join us for a fun evening.

There was virtually no response, so I didn't follow-up on it.

Well we could take over a table Friday night...

I count at least 8 (forum participants and family member) so far that I know will be there...

What did those tables seat last year??? 10...12???

I believe it will be a very nice evening...

I know my Dad's looking forward to it...Almost going to be a regular function for us to attend every year...

This was probably posted before, but could somebody do it again.

Where does one buy tickets and how much are they?

There is a secure order form on the TSRA site. A link for it is about six inches down the page. Take care and I hope to see you there!

Nope...Our "free" bed-and-breakfast is less than 10 minutes away over in Garland near Casa Linda...

All I did was call, and the lady there said that they would charge the C.C. on the day of the banquet, that Friday...
