    Based on my schedule(which may change soon) I would like to go on one of the weekends. Harrisburg is not but 3 hours north of me. Let me know what you all are doing and maybe you northern guys can pour a beer on my head.

    Yeah, it was actually sanctioned last year as IBO Indoor Nationals. Both Dan and I shot. If I go, I'll be shooting again, hopefully no equipment failures this year (knocks on wood :sad:)

    We're going snow or shine, as usual. Not sure on the date, probably the second weekend. I'll check with my town car (Titan) driver.:)

    Haven't been down to it in a few years, but am planning to make the trip this year. It's only an hour and a half away. I dont' mind missing it for a few years as for me, its usually the same old, same old there. But its a day with the guys away from the wives.

    Oh, for anyone going to the show. Right down the street from the show, there is an outstanding beer brewery called Appalachian Brewery. Good food and even better beer. ;-)

    I had forgotten that Appalachian was in Harrisburg, until drinking one of thier beers this weekend. Now that I know its just down the street from the show, I really got to make it out this year. Things are a bit hectic, but I might be able to swing a day trip on the 12th.

    It's looking like the 12th will be the best for me as well. Hopefully get to meet a few of you finally.
