Jay Worden will again be conducting a NROI Multi-gun Range officer seminar at 1 p.m. Thursday September 9th at the Orleans Hotel. If you are interested in attending please contact Jay at: Jay Worden Current RO certification is required to attend. This course furthers the training you received during the level I course. There is some rule review as well as in-depth exercises dealing with the unique issues surrounding a Multi-Gun Match.

The cost is $25.

By the way, we are still looking for staff for the Multi-Gun. If you are interested, apply here[pdf].

Please be aware that the confirmation packets for all three matches have been delayed while we finalize some details. We're working on it and hope to get them mailed out by the end of this week or early next. Please don't call or email the office asking about your packet. It slows us down even more. I know I said in the last issue of Front Sight that they would be out already, but -- well, the best-laid plans of mice and men, etc.

We're working hard to get them out. Please be patient with us during the process. We greatly appreciate it.

The link for the reservation website is: Orleans Reservations

The slot deadline is approaching and will be here more quickly than you think! Slots *must* be in the office by June 21st. Due to the wait list opening up on June 27 we will be voiding slots not received by June 21 and giving them to people on the wait list.

There are *no* exceptions to this - if we void your slot it CANNOT be retrieved for you. If you are worried about your slot arriving in time (mailing it on the 20th is not advised) PLEASE call us at 1-360-855-2245 and make payment arrangements. If we have your *payment* for the slot that will hold your spot until we receive your slot. If we don't have payment by the 21st of June your slot *will* be voided. Please understand that this is not punishment but simple logistical requirement in order to get the slots distributed.

Again, if you are unsure if your slot will make it to the office by the slot deadline, PLEASE CALL to make arrangements for payment. That is the only way to save your slot! Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

With time flitting past at about warp 9.5, now is the time to make your travel arrangements if you have not yet done so. Did you know there's an easy and affordable way to support USPSA and the National Championships, doing something you were probably going to do anyway?

That's right! If a member books their hotel room for Nationals using the host hotel and our booking code, it directly supports the organization and our matches. The hotel offers us discounts on the banquet and staff rooms, among other things, for every room booked. This helps to keep our costs down and offer you a bigger, better match.

It's a family friendly hotel close to everything and as a member you're entitled to take advantage of our discounted rates.
