Help OFCC at Medina County Gun Show Nov. 12/13

Post by JustaShooter »

OFCC will be manning a table at the Medina County gun show during the weekend of November 12th & 13th.

The show is held at the Medina County Fairgrounds, from 9:00am to 5:00pm Saturday, and 9:00 to 3:00pm Sunday.

We could use a couple of people each day to help out! It would be nice to have at least one or two other people at the table at all times to help spread the word about OFCC, hand out info, and take donations. That would give us plenty of help to rotate out for restroom & food breaks, as well as time to check out the vendors.

Admission to the show is free with the exhibitor badges that we get from the show management. So, not only do you get in for free, if you volunteer for a morning you can get in before the crowd and check out the vendor tables before the doors open at 9am!

This is a great opportunity to meet & talk to like minded people, meet some of your fellow OFCC members, and help out an organization that has done a lot to improve our gun rights in Ohio.

If you would like to volunteer, post in this thread, or send me a pm to let us know you can help. Chris448 and I are sharing the lead for this show, I'll be taking Saturday and he will be taking Sunday.

See you there!

May be there on Saturday to help out for a few hours. Sunday I'll be with my friend at his tables but will try and stop over if I can. Hey, it's still possible for the elections to cause some massive panic buying in which case we may be swamped. Hope not, but I've never gone wrong betting on human stupidity.

True dat! I'm with you all the way - and planning for deep coverage of the table if I can.

At the moment, we've got solid coverage for Sunday if everyone shows up as planned, I'm still working out the details for Saturday but not looking bad.

An update on the show:

One word.....BUSY !

Even though the election went our way, there was still a crowd and conversation most of the time I was there.

And the donation box was rather full by noon too!!!

Then djmac and Justashooter came by and.....basically,......"took over the table" from my uncle and I, so we walked around a bit before leaving early.

dl1911 stopped by.....(always glad to see him).

Morne stopped by also......sorry if I forgot anyone.

Maybe someone will fill us in as to how sunday went.

I was working my friend's tables and can say it wasn't as busy on Sunday. Maybe for a short period around noon, but otherwise it was somewhat slow.

Sunday was slow at our table as well - I had hopes after the busy Saturday that Sunday would at least start busy but that wasn't to be the case.

Hopefully, December will be better. We shall see!
