Call for Volunteers: Berea Gun Show

Post by JustaShooter »

OK folks, I seem to recall someone asking why we only do the Medina Gun Show here in NE Ohio and mentioned Berea. The short answer is we don't have enough volunteers. Well, let's see if we can make something happen!

I'm looking for members willing to help make the Berea Gun Show a regular event for Ohioans for Concealed Carry. To do that, we need a couple of dedicated members willing to commit to making this show a reality. I have one member who is interested in helping, but is limited to Saturdays. We need someone to cover Sundays, and hopefully a couple of others to help each day so it isn't just one person all day, help with breaks, and so on.

Ideally, we'd like to see someone step up and commit to being there both days and help recruit volunteers - maybe even take the lead for the show. Or maybe, two members that can make that commitment, one for Saturday and one for Sunday like Chris and I have done with Medina. I'll do everything I can to get it started if we can get some members to volunteer.

So, who wants go get active in promoting OFCC and making a difference for our firearm rights in NE Ohio? Reply to this thread or PM me!

Did you omit the show dates on purpose?
Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!

Not really, I was thinking more of the overall picture and putting a team together and didn't really think about posting the dates. If it will help folks understand what we are looking at, here is the schedule for the rest of the year:

April 30 & May 1, 2016
July 9 & 10, 2016
August 27 & 28, 2016
October 15 & 16, 2016
November 19 & 20, 2016

The April 30 & May 1 show may be a bit soon to be able to get something together, but the rest of the year is certainly doable if we have the people to run the table.

Okay. It will probably help somebody up that way to start looking ahead. (And don't you go pulling a Chuck here and suggest that I take the lead on an event 200+ miles away from home! :P )

Well I can sure understand that!

So, are you saying you would be able to help with the Berea schedule? Or just any show that isn't being covered by Don and Chris? :mrgreen:

(BTW, I'm going to be working on Summit after I see if we can get Berea going, so...)
