We were planning to attend, but then we got a formal invitation to attend my aunt's 90th birthday party in Commiefornia the same weekend. It's probably the last chance I'll ever have to see her, and she's a favorite....plus, it's family, and all that. So we are not going to be attending. I'm disappointed, but I'll just have to content myself with going to the next one.

"Inspecting firearms"? What does that mean?

Never mind. I figured it out.

Printed my extra ID, hope to meet many of you there. I am volunteering from 7am till 7pm on Friday, and plan on attending most of the day Saturday. If volunteering is fun, I may even do it again on Saturday if there is a need.

This is my first NRA event and I have absolutely no idea what to expect.

It should be fun. I have my assignment of "facilities support" and truth be told, I have ZERO idea of what I am going to be doing! Sounds like fun!

Hope to meet many of you there.

The name badge attachment has been viewed 387 times, so it'll be interesting to see how many I can spot in the exhibit hall today. I'm on the road to the convention center in 30, and will be at the NRA-ILA Leadership Forum this afternoon.

Hope to see 387 of you there! :mrgreen:

I walked the entire hall this morning with EKO and Sybo and never saw anyone. :banghead: EKO saw one badge moving at "a hi rate of speed" in the opposite direction. Oh we'll, good luck to everyone else.

We are heading that way now, will be there sat and sun but didn't get a chance to print a txfc badge. We did not receive both badges either despite registering both of us.
