Help St. Jude Children's Hospital and Shoot Machine Guns!
Posted: Sat Sep 09, 2006 8:29 pmPlease join me, September 23rd, in doing something fun and supporting a very important cause at the same time; help St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and Shoot Machine Guns!
In the past two years at this shoot, we have had members of television and print media shoot some of the full auto weapons. They enjoyed it as much as the rest of us, and we have received positive coverage for the gun rights community. St. Jude is an internationally known research hospital and can't be praised enough for the help they provide to children. The Friends of NRA also provides many positive programs that benefit the youths that will be the future supporters of our gun rights.
We need volunteers to load magazines and help staff our TFA table at the event. Donations for ammo would also be appreciated. Please call or e-mail me and I will add you to the schedule and/or put you in touch with Bill Langham, of Guns & Ammo for ammo donations.
Thank You,
