Anyone look at the map?  Scroll north of Cabela's and you'll see this.



Check it out for yourself.

Question to those who have worked the Cabelas' NRA Days before: about how many people actually come up to the table and engage you in conversation or ask for more information?

The reason I ask is because I would like to get a bunch of full color laser printed newsletters in your hand to give out to interested parties, not just people walking past, if that would be of interest to us.

I would also print a special 31st page that would tell them this is a an electronic pdf newsletter with 150 hyperlinks to additional content that they would need to access via this URL:  http://miopencarry.org/moc_files/publications/newsletter/MOC-Newsletter-2.pdf  and anything else we would like to say.  I think I can supply 50 or maybe even 100 full-color copies of the 30-page newsletter.  How many do you think you will need?  50?  100?  200?  More?

I assume you will be providing MOC Tri-folds for those interested.  In the past I have printed out copies of the MSP Legal Update #86.   I think I ended up foisting about 80 copies on my son and told him to give them out to his friends and strangers he meets.  I can also supply over 100 of those if you want.  That's easier, it's smaller.

I will be out of town that weekend so I won't be there myself, so I would have to get them to someone beforehand.  Actually I will be back Sunday afternoon and might be able to work Sunday afternoon if needed (maybe 4 pm until 8 pm close).  It sucks, though, because it's like a two hour drive from my house.  But if needed I can probably do it.

I worked the table all day both days in February and we had a good amount of discussion. On Saturday we ran out of MSP 86's and had to get some more brought to us. I can't give you a number count, but we did spend more time talking to other people than we did among ourselves. I know I plan to be there again both days and will have a lot of all the literature this time. Copies of the newslettter would be a good addition I think. Would you be printing these double sided? Reason I ask is it would be cheaper that way and easier to pass out as people wouldn't feel they were taking a book lol.

Yes.  If MOC would like to pass these out, I'll try to get a bunch printed up (and MSP #86, too).

I know what you mean about the 2 hour drive being a pain. I drove it the last 2 years for the NRA Days at that Cabelas.

I can be there on Sunday from 10a to 4p.
When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own palace, his goods are in peace. Luke 11:21

Then He said to them, “But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one."  Luke 22:36
