Upcoming Competition: Laker Prone Invitational

Hi Everyone!

It's been a while since I've sent one of these out, so let's see if I can remember how to. :-P

GVSU's coach literally sent me this information about 90 minutes ago, so I apologize for the short timeframe.

On the weekend of April 7th we have the opportunity to travel to Grand Rapids, MI to compete in the Laker Prone Invitational.

Because we haven't been active this semester I don't expect us to do much more than have some fun shooting against GVSU and whoever else decides to attend.

The course of fire will be a total of 60 shots prone. 20 shots at a time. This competition is open to everyone (Collegiate and non).

Due to the need to schedule vehicle reservations with Husky Motors a few weeks in advance the method of transportation will most likely be private vehicle, but we might get lucky and get one from Husky Motors.

Sadly, the timeframe is so short that I doubt we will have time to get this to be a verified absence. But - We will probably be able to arrange travel so that we leave late enough on Friday that we won't interfere with anyone's class schedules.

The club will be covering the entire cost of the trip except for food and entertainment. We will be covering the cost of ammunition. We can only take up to 8 right handed & 2 left handed competitors due to equipment limitations. For this trip to happen, we will need a minimum of 4 participants.

** IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ATTEND PLEASE LET ME KNOW BY April 3rd at 8PM EDT **

I don't have an itinerary for this yet, because I'm waiting to see if we have enough people to make this trip happen before scheduling with GVSU. But a rough outline of our schedule would be:

  • Leaving sometime on the 6th. If we leave after 4pm, we will probably be stopping along the way and continuing on in the morning. It all depends how our vehicle situation works out.
  • Shoot the competition at 10am or noon. Awards ceremony is after the competition at noon.
  • Returning to Houghton on the 7th or 8th, depending on what people want to do.



Thanks,
Zach
