Sorry to hear you and your oppo are both poorly at the moment. Just a thought , it may be worth making the local papers aware of the plight of the club. Let thier media coverage help with sympathy and supprot for your club, and maybe relocation to new premisses A nice write up and picture of all the boy's together, and an explation of what you want and need to achieve. Headline. Local youth shooting club need's help. Good luck, and get well soon. ATB. Bill. Quote Link to post
matt_hooks 188 Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Sorry to hear about this mate, what a bunch of t#####s! The press might not be a good way to go at the moment. Unfortunately guns and shooting are in the middle of a load of bad press, and the local papers are more likely to come down on the side of the people who stopped the youngsters being taught safe responsible shooting.
