ATAR so who's going?
« on: July 01, 2010, 08:28:00 PM »
This will be my first time going.  I'm gonna stay at my Grandma's house and make the short drive everyday.  So who all is going?  What should I expect? I've only been to a couple small shoots with no venders and to Kalamazoo once. What should I bring (bows, arrows, knives, stuff to trade, etc?


Thanks and looking forward to meeting a lot of you,
Ken

Bring bow, arrows, tab, money, trade goods and high expectations. You will find good use for all of these.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

I'll probably be there a little every day.  I'm gonna come solo one day and the other days I'll bring my 4 yr old daughter along.  I hope to meet all of you but if I can only meet one person it has to be Killy.  Her wit and special way with words has made me smile so many times here on the Gang!   :bigsmyl:    Of course I gotta meet Big Jim and try out a Thunder Child as well!

I'm goin', probably Friday if the weather cooperates.  My 16 year old son will be with me and hopefully I can get my 75 year old dad to go.
Been workin' on him the last week or so.

We will be there with bells on ( I won't tell you where the bells will be).
This is a great shoot. I have been looking forward to it for sometime.

Coming in Thursday and have really been looking forward to this one. Danny, Bobby, and crew do a heck of a job. It is one of the best of the year.Looking forward to meeting up with those I know and those I have yet to meet.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Well known as my favorite place to be, away from home. The Dino Home Herd (for the kids of ATAR), my Daughter, Lois, and I will be getting in Thursday afternoon, and camping 'til Sunday afternoon. A be-yoot-i-full place, from high on the hill where the vendors and meeting house are, all the way down to the Dam at the end of the lake where the comp range usually is - and more fun than a barrel of playful monkies ... er dinosaurs, in this case.

Looking forward to seeing all of your smiling faces.

Tom Anderson is the other guy (lft) in the pic (above) with Danny (rt) but I got a message from him just yesterday, and he has to be at a different kind of shoot (in Prep for Camp Perry Nationals) that weekend so won't make ATAR this year, unless he has a last minute change of heart.

Sounds like a pretty good group of folks!  I'll be on the look out for a TradGang sign and for a Big red truck.  Guess I better listen for some bells too!   :biglaugh:
