I know it's only been 10-Days since the last shoot, however we have an excellent opportunity which is being presented to us. We all know what happened on September 11th, 2001, and I don't really need to recount the days events. In remembrance of the day however we will be holding another "Informal Shoot" to commemorate the days events, the lives that were lost, and the events that followed. More or less we're going to shoot, eat, and have fun again.
The last shoot, though hot, was a lot of fun and those who came had a blast. There were the normal Class III's, Hot Dogs, Chips, Drinks, Gun Shot Residue, and that great tent setup by Stang1 and his "better-half". This will be our 6th "Organized Informal". Below you will find all the information you will need to plan ahead for this fun activity. Hope to see you there! ---------- When Sunday, September 11th, 9:00 AM Where (see directions below) Babcock/Webb Wildlife Management Area Shooting Range 29200 Tucker Grade Road Punta Gorda, FL 33955. Phone: 941-575-5768 Cost (per person) $3.00 per person at the unattended entrance (there's a yellow post) ---------- Maps and Directions . . From North Head south on I-75 to Exit 158 (Tucker Grade) Turn left on Tucker Grade and drive straight and you will drive right into the park. From South Head north on I-75 to Exit 158 (Tucker Grade) Turn right on Tucker Grade and drive straight and you will drive right into the park. Directions To the Range Stop at the Entrance (sign and Yellow Post to your right) After paying the park entrance fee, continue straight on the dirt road. About 1/2 mile down the dirt road, you will see the Ranges on the left. When pulling into the Ranges, you will see three (3) ranges. The first one is the long range, second is the Pistol and Rifle Range, and the very end will be the Shotgun Range. We will be gathered and shooting at the second range for pistols and rifles. -------------------- During our last shoot, the heat was unforgiving, but the day was fun nonetheless. Hopefully the weather is slightly cooler next time around. Make sure you bring plenty of fluids just in case it is Video of the last Informal. I will be handing out a "certain something" to each of the attendee's who come. Left to right; Tributes of Light as seen looking north from Gateway Plaza and the Temporary WTC memorial in Battery Park, the Fritz Koenig sculpture, which once stood in the center of the WTC plaza, and which survived September 11 (although battered). |

We shoot pretty much anything that propels projectiles. Last time, someone brought an airsoft handgun with neon green grips! |
