I was held up at a family function and was watching my clock like a junkie, didn't leave for Oly till 7 pm. Twern't no one there when I arrived... I know it was raining kittens and puppies all day.
What was the attendance???


We left about that time and there were still maybe 250 people there. Weather was horrible and kudos to all who endured it

Thanks to all who braved the monsoon for this function. Sorry I couldn't get there sooner.

Oregonians fared better weather & attendance wise.

Anybody else here in Oly today?


Actually that must have been you. Your hat had Chip stiched on the side.
I saw Chip also but I was engaged in a conversation and never found him again. We got drenched but stuck out the whole event. Was not hurt at all when the ended it an hour early. Glad I carried my stainless 226 as it rain 2.04" in Oly on Saturday and my shoulder holster can prove it!

So I have been spreading the word by physically going to ranges with printed flyers. The ranges and their staff were very welcoming.

The reason I chose to do it "old school" is because I noticed most people around here who are pro-gun don't use social media. I am adding another flyer to choose from to this post so others can use it if they so choose. If anyone can spread the word via flyer, please do. I am listing the spots that I already went to below.

Also please note that corporate places, even if they want to support, will probably take them but are not allowed to post them. All the ranges I went to were happy to help promote after I asked, "I was wondering if you would like to help promote the pro-gun rally that is happening this weekend?"

With a little more help, we can have a great turn out!


Champion Arms Shooting Range - 18801 E Valley Hwy, Kent, WA 98032
Federal Way Discount Guns - 1401 S 324th St, Federal Way, WA 98003
Sportsman's Warehouse - 1405 S 348th St, Federal Way, WA 98003 (corporate and could not hang it up)
West Coast Armory Indoor Range - 13216 SE 32nd St, Bellevue, WA 98005
Wade's Eastside Guns - 13570 Bel-Red Rd, Bellevue, WA 98005

Thanks!
I also sent an email to:
newstips@king5.com
Subject: "March for our Rights" Expected to draw over 2,000
The facebook website shows 8,000 people interested. (see below link to the facebook page).
https://www.facebook.com/events/1661802327190025/

with the March For Our Rights v2.5 PDF.

Feel free to do the same so we can "spam" them with interest. I didn't want to add a personal message as it may influence whomever opens the email. This way they read only the facts.
I am going to send it out to other broadcasters as well. I will update.

My journey to the Olympia rally on the 14th cost me a 2014 GMC Sierra truck ... I was rear ended at Northgate Exit #173 by a fart can mobile. Pending replacement/repair we will shoot for a better outcome on the 21st

Salute to all who made it!

Ouch! That sucks.

I'll be there, late but there. I have to go to Bellingham to settle some housing matters in the AM, then make the long drive back.
