& even more good news, for every entree you bring that will be in the Judged competition, you will receive a raffle ticket for a gun drawing.

Bring 20 mounts , you get 20 entrees.

On top of this good stuff, SCI AK has graciously donated ALOT of money for various awards.  $ 3000.00 in fact.

So now you can compete for free to try to win a trophy & MONEY.

There will be 4 Divisions of competition ;

Well , did it get the point across ??

We get all kinds of calls wanting to know if the Open division is also the professional division & so forth.

I thought it would eliminate Stupid questions.

[Bucknut]

Here - amateur. Maybe just call it Novice.  It will be easier for everyone.  Sounds like a great show. Would be nice to attend. Can you shoot anything that time of year?

You will still have to pay a Whole $ 10. Membership fee to join the association, & if you want your points to count towards NTA certification or Award of Excellence, You must be a current member of NTA or Pay NTA membership at the show.

That's the cheapest membership I have ever heard of.

I will be giving a Seminar on Friday , Interpreting your Reference, & competition techniques.

There is going to be a Membership meeting to vote in new officers & discuss future show ideas.

As I said this show will be covered by a television crew that will air the competition on TV.

Mount registration day is Feb 24 2011 from 8am to 3 pm.

Late comers will not be turned away.

More to come
