Franklin D Wolverton Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 Match Hotel: The Lodge Hotel and Convention Center (www.lodgehotel.com) Room Rate is $89.00 per night as of right now. She is looking to give us more of a break depending on how many people actually register. Their normal rate for a weekend night is $109. We have 20 rooms booked as of right now. Use USPSA as your rate code. They will give us more rooms if we need them. If you don't want to spend this much, there is a Motel 6 by the airport that shows their rates at $39.00 a night...

Franklin D Wolverton Posted December 6, 2008 Author Share Posted December 6, 2008 BTT... I have 6 RO's currently... we need 22. The RO benefit package is as follows: 1. Match Fee: 2. Free Staff T-Shirt 3. ½ of hotel (double occupancy) or $25/day per diem. 4. Lunch on days worked 5. Staff Appreciation Dinner on Saturday evening (Free for staff... $15 for guests) 6. "Best RO" award voted on by the competitors. There will be a plaque and (hopefully) a firearm. All names will be turned into the RM and he will select the final staffing and assignments. The RM hasn't been assigned yet... as we are waiting on Nationals dates. Both RM's I have asked have extensive RM and MD experience at Area matches and Nationals.

Franklin D Wolverton Posted December 29, 2008 Author Share Posted December 29, 2008 It's in the newsletter that I sent to my e-mail list a couple weeks ago.

Franklin D Wolverton Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 Up to 13 RO's. Technically enough to run the match, but I would like to have 2 on each stage (20 total). RM is still TBD, but I should know within a day or two of the Nationals dates being posted. Both of the RM's I have talked to work the Nationals, so they know what they are doing. Considering we are still 8 months out from the match, it's coming along quite nicely. Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franklin D Wolverton Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 Ray Hirst has just agreed to be the Range Master for the Illinois Sectional. For those of you that don't know, not only is Ray a RM, he is also an RMI... which means he teaches this stuff. On top of that, he has RM'd the nationals numerous times, as well as who knows how many area shoots and sectionals. We couldn't ask for an RM with a better understanding of the rules. Plus, he's a good guy. Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franklin D Wolverton Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 (edited) We just picked a couple more Stage Sponsors. Springfield Armory has confirmed donation of a 9mm XDM to the prize table. Canyon Creek Custom has verbally committed to donating a custom gun to the prize table (this should be confirmed in a day or two). They're starting to roll in now.... looks like we're going to have a heck of a prize table. My goal is to have at least one firearm to go to each division... and one to go to the staff... See y'all at the match. Frank Edited March 3, 2009 by Franklin D Wolverton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franklin D Wolverton Posted March 11, 2009 Author Share Posted March 11, 2009 Woohoo... We are now up to 17 RO's, 1 RM, 1 QM, and 1 Stats. Looks like we're gonna fill the staff no problem. I am reposting the application and stages here, for those that don't want to dig through the posts for them.

Coach Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Application is in the mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franklin D Wolverton Posted March 12, 2009 Author Share Posted March 12, 2009 We're filling up fast... We have 194 open slots left Actually... we aren't doing to bad. I have 18 RO's now... more RO's than shooters... how often does that happen. AND... ALL the RO's are either currently certified, or will be by the end of this month. Rumer is, we might have a couple of the big-wigs (tippy top shooters) at our match, but I can't say who yet. Suffice it to say, you'll enjoy meeting them. Ben Stoeger even said he might come (He would be the third tippy top shooter). Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
