Wakal Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 You would have to ask Bill Powe...the Air Farce stuck me in San Antonio, not San Angelo, when I came back from the Middle East A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wakal Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 The BoD offered A4 to San Angelo, as well as the US IPSC Nationals. Our folks have not had any of their phone calls returned lately, though, so you might want to ask your Area Director what is going on...ours isn't talking.

Chuck Anderson Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 US IPSC Nationals? As in an actual IPSC Nationals as opposed to USPSA? I would go to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wakal Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Yes, IPSC...Load up your Production gun all the way, download your Limited gun, ditch your 6" .40, and move your mag pouches...and what the heck are those tiny little Open guns for? However, no answer from The Powers That Be indicate this project (which, oddly enough, they asked us to do) is stalled for an unknown reason...

Flatland Shooter Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 However, no answer from The Powers That Be indicate this project (which, oddly enough, they asked us to do) is stalled for an unknown reason...Alex Alex, I see that you are from Von Ormy. Are we confused and mixing up San Angelo (where this thread indicates the match may be held) for San Antonio (just a stones throw from Von Ormy)? About a 185 mile mistake as the crow flies.

sfinney Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Great.... I finally move to Shreveport, and they move Area 4 somewhere else...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakal Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I know exactly where I am talking about. San Angelo is about 230 miles from Von Ormy as the truck drives I lived in San Angelo for quite a while and still own property there (and consider that my home club). San Antonio sucks.

Catfish Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 Sooooooo, A4 has moved from Shreveport to maybe Tulsa to San Angelo? Crikey. *thread drift on* And what the heck do you mean, "moved to Shreveport", Mr. Finney?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactiger Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 The USPSA Board of Directors has nothing to do with the location of Area championship matches--that's strictly the purview of the Area Director. Last I heard, Area 4 was going to be held in Princeton, LA, since Ken Hicks and Wayne Miller are producing the USPSA Multigun Nationals there, and the Area match was to be held shortly before or after (I can't remember which). That may have changed since I last spoke with Wayne, I don't know. If it has, however, it's because of a decision the Area 4 director made, not the BOD. I can't speak about the US IPSC Nationals, as I've heard nothing about that. Contact Ken Hicks and get the straight story. Troy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakal Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 And if Ken isn't answering his phone (surprise), returning phone messages (suprise), or answering email (bigger surprise), try contacting someone that can reach Ken or otherwise deal with him directly. Not much we can do when we try to say "OK, and here are the days we can do it" and get...nothing... Kenny has been trying for a while now to get in touch with the man. And...Mac, thanks for the input, but it was the BOD who called (from their last meeting) and asked us about the IPSC nationals, not just Ken. Kenny can't get an answer from his sources there either... Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Angelo is about 230 miles from Von Ormy as the truck drives I lived in San Angelo for quite a while and still own property there (and consider that my home club). San Antonio sucks. Alex That's good news. San Antonio is closer for me, but San Angelo is a lot more scenic and easier to get around. If A-4 is in San Angelo, sign me up.

Wakal Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 However, not being able to get in touch with your area director is a big problem. Yes sir, tell me about it. But he got reelected anyway. One of the folks on my short list of favorite people stepped up to try and help mediate this (in the hope that The Powers That Be won't ignore him like they are ignoring the others).

joseywales Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Great.... I finally move to Shreveport, and they move Area 4 somewhere else...... Don't stress yourself too much...look at it this way => Multi-gun Nats is confirmed for October at Shreveport. Area 4 appears to be in November at TBD. Wayne M & Ken H are running the show for Multi-gun Nats. Wayne M & Ken H have run the Area 4 show for many years. One of the past issues for Area 4 seems to have been getting enough setup help to create the match stages. Given those presuppositions, what would one wager that Area 4 is: 1 - in November, 2 - in Shreveport, and 3 - with stages STRIKINGLY similar to the Multi-gun Nats stages? I'm sure we'll all know...sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markm Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Shreveport, doesn't have a local club anymore, so yea, they are short on help there, so lets go back and b#@$ about not having help........Makes sense in some alternate universe I guess ???????????
