Poll: Gauging interest in a rifle masters camp

Dear rifle shooting friends.

We in the coach department at the NRA are trying to determine if there is enough interest to support a smallbore rifle 3-Position and/or prone masters camp. A masters camp would be open to anyone (adults, collegiates, juniors) who is interested in improving their shooting skills. We would have some of the best coaches and shooters in the world to help with this event.

We would also be interested in your thoughts on where to hold this event and an appropriate time frame.

A proposal for around Thanksgiving 2005 (subject to range availability) has already been received. The camp would be 3-4 days in length and there would also be an opportunity to have a competition (optional) at the end of the event.

This would not be a free event. You would be responsible for your travel, ammo as well as a registration fee (yet to be determined). Shooters from outside the USA may be required to pay an additional fee if the event is held at the OTC in COlorado Springs.

Thanks for taking this poll.

Marcus, might I suggest that the camp be held at least a week before Thanksgiving so that we might avoid the holiday travel glut? Thanks!

As I will (hopefully) be living in Colorado Springs at that time, I'll be willing to attend anything that is offered there. Though for the time being my preference is NRA 3position, long term the international would probably be best for me.

i think it is an excellent idea to have a camp open to adults. i've been thinking about this too, because it seems like the majority of the camps in this country are designed for juniors. where do those juniors go when they get older and leave college? a camp open to adults would be great!

I would be interested in attending a camp if it is held at the OTC.
