That is a great idea, but I do want this to remain somewhat "intimate" for the first go around. I'm not saying you have to be an active TOO member to attend, but I'd like to limit it to active members and direct acquaintances. We have a great group here and I have done just this thing on a small scale (12 or so guys) and it is an absolute blast. I learned so much about building arrows, shooting instinctively, tuning, etc. and it was a vital part of my growth as a hunter. It the future, I think this would be something to consider, but for now we'll keep it a little more TOO centered...
For sure we can do a family rate and I'm not sure we'll even need to do any more than accept donations. We need to address that, but we'll make sure its on the cheap...
I plan to do something with aerials and topos. I have access to a plotter and have a simple concept how to make it fun and informational...
Sounds like your heading in the right direction Jesse and I am going to make every effort to try and attend. Thanks for the heads up on the Zero turns Hicks is bringing Been rotflmao.

Why bother with the Cardinal Center than? Pick a weekend and lets all camp at a central State Park. Reserve a shelter on the park for free and we can do our classes from the shelters. All for free
For the archery range and proximity to some private land we can use as training ground mainly...

Jesse, Not sure what Mr.Fishburn charges for the use of the Cardinal center but if it to much we have place just across 71 the I think you can rent.I could look into it if you like, I do a Trapping demo there every year for there youth weekend. They have a bow range,gun range a camp ground and 2 stocked catfish lakes.
May-June? Ummm. . . good luck finding three zero turns of mine that the guys would give up. We will not be able to break them free at this time frame. Fortunately, as a compromise, Beentown said he would be giving out free blow jobs. :smiley_crocodile:
I kid. I kid Charles. lol

Ya, they just put in a 3rd lake. I do a Turkey hunting and Trapping saftey class for them in the fall every year .
Sounds like an awesome time and a great way for us to all get together and share knowledge. If I don't have anything planned I'd love to attend. It would be great if the date was set ASAP so's I can see what my schedule looks like.
How far is Marengo from C-bus? Takes me an 1.5 hours to get to I-270.
Ideas: shed exhibit, tips on finding them, dog training tips
Antler scoring, wildlife photography exhibit(curran comes to mind),
Hoot could show us how to knap flint, Diablo could learn me to shoot a recurve better
These are just a few .......
I hope I can make it! Sounds great.

You could make it from the south end (farthest) of Columbus in about an hour - straight up 71 at 61
