JetDoc Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Does anyone know if they need RO's or volunteer's, I would like to shoot the match but it looks like I was to late to the sign up party but maybe if I volunteer I can shoot the match?

Nick S Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 I just spoke with a gentleman who is involved with the match. I did not catch his name however I contacted him via the number on the match FB patch. He said he will be contacting people next week for payment and also releasing some other info. Thats all I got. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fireman064 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Just a heads up to all... I received a phone call from a lady named Alice from Fort Benning Outdoor and Rec today about Payment for the match. Just a FYI for those who haven't gotten the call yet. It took me off guard at first because I have never gotten a phone call to pay for a match; So just a heads up because it didn't sound very legit initially.

HRider Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Could you share the phone number that she called on? I received a call also, which I was suspicious of. I figured I would check it out here before paying. Thanks, Hurley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Norman Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 I think I know what happened. Apparently I somehow accessed the 2015 page. I was originally in but had to withdraw, for some reason that page is still available and being excited to squad, I didn't realize my error. Apologies to all for the false alarm.
