Thanks for your help. Takes a lot of people for this event to run smoothly and a lot of behind the scenes work to get it done while making it look easy. Now the big question . Who is interested in The Eighth Annual NWI INGO Family Day?Just wanted to say I thoroughly enjoyed my 1st INGO Shoot. Great to meet the ones a was able to; wish I had visited all the stations and met everyone, but the time just flew by so fast. I had to leave earlier than I had planned, so missed out on the comradery afterwards; I'll fix that for next year. I was impressed with the job the DNR did, at least on the set-up and everything. It sounds like there may be some areas for improvement, and Doug from the DNR sounded like he'd like to help address those issues for next year.
Also, I don't mind doing larger numbers of flyers and posters next year, if we can get good distribution. Maybe the DNR's posters got out there. Being up north here, I don't know, but I'd like to figure out a way to ensure distribution, especially in key areas. I know there were several posters at good spots here in NWI, but I didn't get the impression we drew many from NWI.
Is that info available from the DNR (where people were from)? I don't mean names and addresses, obviously, just where people were from, in general.
It was fun seeing the smiles on participants, especially the youngsters, as they discovered what a 20 gauge feels like in real life, away from their computers. I have a few unique 22's and such I can share next time. Overall, a very successful event, I think, with room for improvement to make it even more fun in the future. Thanks to everyone that made it happen!

Oh, also a raffle next year, to raise money for the following year; a nice .22 rifle or something would be way cool for some lucky participant. I might even have one or two candidates to raffle off.
