Flyer for event.

**UPDATED**

After looking more, it hit me how to put all the information into the QR code. You get the first flyer with that feature. If you scan it, all the info is there, most already converted to links, such as the date and time, and location.

I carry a gun because a Police Officer is too heavy.

I would like to go but I don't think I will have my CPL in time, its been 30 days since I submitted my papers and I have no faith in how fast Berrien county is by the info I have read. I don't want to go without my CPL.
Maybe i'll have it for the event at D&R but I dought If i'll even have it then.

If you would like we can meet up and go over the fine points of OC without a cpl. Also you don't have to see carry to attend. No one will think less of you.

Donut, All the more reason to just come. You can gain a lot of knowledge and gain the confidence / comfort at the same time. You can talk to people from newer carriers to people who have carried for many many years.

Please do your best to meet up. I will be there hopping on my crutches.

Even if you do not want to carry its a great time to ask questions, especially if you're new to OC, there will be plenty of people there, even if you dont carry.  And I do not have a CPL myself, there's a little bit more to understand with the law but its most certainly do able. 

However if you do want to wait thats no problem at all, if you want to get together some time I live in Battle Creek and I'm usually free on the weekends if I'm not attending MOC gatherings.

OP has been updated to change the address. This IS the Theo & Stacy's on Westnedge, same one we've been to before. NOT the one of west main.
