2015 Party In The Park

Post by schmieg »

OFCC is pleased to announce that this year's Party In The Park will be held at Liberty Park in Powell, Ohio, on Saturday, August 15. As in the past, the planned time is from 11:00 to 4:00 with lunch starting at 11:30 and planned speakers beginning around 1:00.

Our guest speaker this year will be hickock45 of YouTube fame. We will also have other speakers, including some political personages and our own Werz, a county prosecutor who most of us know from the forums if not personally.

There will be door prizes including some firearms and no one has gone away hungry from one of these events.

The cost this year will be $20 per person with children under 16 free. You can buy tickets at the link on the main webpage. Please try to buy your tickets early to make it easier for us to make sure we have enough food and drink for everyone.

OFCC does not make a profit on this and we try to break even. This event is provided for our membership and followers as a celebration of our accomplishments and to provide information as to legal changes and planned legislative and other activities. It's also a lot of fun and a good chance to meet those you've communicated with online for the past year(s).

Hoping to see you all there.
-- Mike

You can PM me if you want to take care of this before hand or just bring them to the picnic. However, if you are donating a gun or something that will require a FFL, please coordinate that with us in advance.

Thanks for your support. We really appreciate it.

In speaking with Hickok45, he was asking what we might want him to speak on at PITP. I told him I would put it out to the forums to get some ideas.

If this conversation starts to derail the thread too much, I may create a new topic and move it over to that.


He plans to speak for about 10-15 minutes, and then we will likely set him up at a table for a meet and greet style. He and his son John will both be in attendance.

Just wish we could have the event someplace where he could let his guns do the talking. :)

I suppose he could share his experiences with concealed carry gear, ways to practice, etc. If he isn't an Ohioan he wouldn't be all that dialed into our state politics anyhow, right? Let him talk handguns and related equipment.
Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!

Hickock45 is a school teacher, I don't know if it would be right to get his thoughts on school carry ?
