Hoi, I'll be there, and I'm working on the other half. One condition though. You have to let her shoot your new gun. :mrgreen:

I am going to take care of that!

You're so kind. And so are the many PMs I got encouraging me, too. Thank you! :tiphat:

Get your buddies to sign up, vote, and attend! Tell them it's a graduation present. :mrgreen:

It doesn't look like there have been any new votes today. If it stays about the same, I'll declare a winning date and change the poll tomorrow. Get your friends to put their votes in now!

It seems like Elm Fork is the consensus. Do I need to do a poll for range location or is that the de facto choice for location?

I've only been to Elm Fork the one time and it was very nice. I don't mind that choice at all. :thumbs2:

Something else came up on the 30th for me. The 14th still works. I deselected the 30th from my choices.

May 14th is the clear favorite, law school grads aside. :( There might be enough interest to have a second one on April 30th if someone wants to coordinate it for those unable to attend the 14th or wanting to attend both.

Now we're voting on food. What say ye?

I voted for the restaurant. It was really nice to sit down & relax while eating good food and visiting with everyone.

Also, I don't have the means to bring anything unless I stop somewhere & buy fast food. Of course, I would be more than willing to donate if one of the other choices wins.

I voted for bring our own because I don't like the idea of everyone getting to go eat Mexican food without me. :mad5

The restaurant is in the lead 8 to 13 over eating at the range right now. Keep the votes coming in tonight and tomorrow I'll change it to a head count.
